Another important facility that is lacking is a proper gui dialup tool like kppp in kde or anything else in gnome. There was a novell dialup tool found after a lot of hunting in the packages selection list but that does not work even in root login.
Suse is popular for its KDE. I have hardly seen anyone use Gnome on suse. If you use KDE, you will realize that Yast gives you all the latest packages to choose from. Having used Suse 9.3 for over a year, I must tell you, I never installed Gnome on Suse, and so never used it! All I can tell you that Suse is the best desktop distro out there and definitely worth buying. AFA Opensuse 10 is concerned, I havent used it yet, but definitely looking forward to in the near future. -- Regards, Sanket Medhi, sanketmedhi [at] gmail [dot] com
