Trying out openSUSE 11
Over the next few days I am going to be testing out openSUSE 11 (the latest version).
What I’ve liked about openSUSE, in the past, is that it’s been a good preview of what will be included in Novell’s SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop and Server releases. I have taken some Novell training courses on SUSE 10.1 so for me it’s one of the easier distributions to use (although Ubuntu is still my fav).
Thus far I have completed the installation of the 64bit version in a virtual machine in VMware Workstation 6. I am very impressed with the installation process. It only took about 5 minutes of my time and then the installation went on auto-pilot. Once it was done I booted into the OS and everything worked as it should.
As soon as I get some more time to play around and use it a bit I will have more of a review to post.
Cheers!

Well I haven’t had the time to play with openSUSE as much as I have liked so I haven’t been able to write up this review yet. I’m going to try to in the next week or so but I’m going away this weekend and won’t have time until the beginning of next week to really get into it.
