During the last week I had the opportunity to test the Proffesional new version of SUSE 9.1. As is usually the first impression is often the most important, I was afraid to open the box. Collected a little courage I opened it. I could not go with admiration. SUSE AG postarala really to give SUSE. Yes it should appear each boxed version of GNU / Linux. In the middle of a consumer who bought the package is 2 books dealing with Linux: Administration Guide "and" User Guide ", a package of CDs and the 2 disc DVD bilateral (DVD1 and DVD2 installation source), plus a package of regular CD needed for installation - total 7 discs. In addition, SUSE AG, the plate with a full version of the database SQL Anywhere ® Studio for Linux v9.0 and SUSE extra sticker with the logo - with the chameleon. That was a first impression. As the company issuing boxed Linux to try to reach more and more "normal" people will try to evaluate it from the perspective of the average user. Here, I have a computer and would like to install the operating system to Linux, I have heard as much as it was written in the newspaper the "SCO versus Linux." (tested on SUSE COMPAQ Presario 1200 notebook with a DVD 128 RAM, Celeron 800) Ok, so next I tried to install 1h SUSE Linux. My computer (Note that I am a normal user) have already installed Windows ME (legally). Setup is loading and after a while you see something that no longer recalls the typical installer. SUSE installer deserves 5 +, in this case, guys (and maybe a girl ...) Here are some perfectly. Setup after a few clicks he chose the most appropriate packages for me, he shared partition - cropping current Windows partition and creating a new set up basic device (mouse, keyboard, screen, music etc), and the grub bootloader that Windows now has added to the list. I do not know how it is for other installers from SUSE but this, once it complies with its task, it is two very simple, with 6 clicks OK "later" can be considered as completed the installation! After quite a long process of installing (off the drive?) Finally able to enjoy Linux on your computer.

Since I wanted to require the installation of the least of my intervention, I installed the default version of KDE 3.2.1. SUSE 9.1 Pro is now one of the most current package distribution. Normally installed: OpenOffice 1.1.1 (version specially made for the SUSE) [see screenshot], KDE [see screenshot] 3.2.1, the latest versions of graphics programs (GIMP, digiKam, Sodipodi, Kooka), Gnome 2.4 and many others (interested SUSE.de refer to the page where an inventory of the distribution of all packages). SUSE looks like windows were certainly cope with the operation - is the "Start" menu in the form of chameleon, is the "My Computer", "network environment", "Trash" is a sort of "Start here" - a guide for beginners and of course pressing windows opens the "Start Menu". SUSE installer can set up most of the minutes. ACPI my laptop, touchpad, network card, PCMCIA, and others. The system has a number of icons in trayu - keyboard, sound support, and clipboard tool equipment SUSE (where you can see the complete list of devices that support SUSE.

Unfortunately, we can not forget that there is such thing as Windows and still use it quite a large number of people. Sometimes we need to exchange files, connect to or print the document on a Windows printer (of course there are no printers with Windows but there are windowsy the printer:)) And here SUSE handles well - using yast can configure your connection to the LAN, configure the program to us Samba is responsible for operating the SMB network [see screenshot]. Neighborhood Network Program, and Lisa will make it possible to freely browse the network using the Konqueror browser. Printing is also done without reservation - the CUPS printer server connects to and uses the shared Windows printers.

And now something on the computer - as I have already mentioned on your computer, even Windows. The installer advised the error, and all - I think Windows still runs;), and even works! Partitioning succeeded, Linux partitions can operate freely windows - the installer will add entries to the fstab, and automatically when you start the computer I can use these partitions, C and D are located in the / windows.
