SuSE, openSUSE On October 22, 2004, Novell released SUSE Linux Professional 9.2 (abbreviated as SLP9.2 henceforth) targeted at the home user and Linux enthusiast crowd. Since I am already using SUSE 9.1 for my daily work on my IBM laptop, I was quite eager to check out 9.2. SLP9.1 is already a very polished Linux distribution, with tons of software ready to go. So here's a SuSE user's review of 9.2 after several weeks using the new version. Update: Also see some 9.2 screenshots with KDE and Gnome.

2.6 malloc() bug
by Chuckles Barnes on Wed 5th Jan 2005 22:44 UTC

Doesn't the kernel supplied iwth this version of SuSE contain the infamous malloc() bug which would cause USB mice to "hang" while changing virtual terminals?
If so, I'd say thats a showstopper for sure.
