openSUSE 10.3 alpha1 arrived. It's a snapshot of work in progress, so it's advised not to use it in a mission critical environment :-) On PPC it has one serious bug: X.org configuration from YaST does not work. Xorg itself is fully functional, so one can configure it using 'xorgconfig'. OpenOffice is missing from this build, but one can use the Koffice suite, or standalone programs, like AbiWord, gnumeric, etc. DVD torrent is available at http://download.opensuse.org/distributi ... pc.torrent for other options, please see http://en.opensuse.org/Development_Version#Downloads |

I had some very serious issues with marvell gigabit on suse10.2. ( crashes of the system on heavy lan-loads). I changed back to 10.1 and the problems disappeared. Does anyone know if this prob was solved on 10.3 allready ? |

I only have a 100Mbps network, and there I could not crash it under any load. Do you stress in a gigabit environment? |

I'm using one of my Peg2 as fileserver for backups. The 100M-interface is stable, but transfering 200Gig on the via is a real pain. Gigabit is about 4 times faster, but there seems to be a big flaw on kernels around Suse10.2, which makes the kernel crash. Earlier versions of the kernel (Suse10.1, niktarix..) don't show this behaviour. (For me, 10.1 works, but it is hard to find an old version of suse.) |

Today I successfully installed openSUSE factory on EFIKA. It needs some workarounds, but works fine. I have a list of little annoyances to feed in bugzilla :-) The impatient can try it today, for the rest I would suggest to wait for the next alpha release (I mean Alpha4, as Alpha3 is due tomorrow...). |
