Talk, Rumors, X Versus Y This is a desktop comparison of Red Hat Linux 9 and SuSE 8.2 Professional Edition. We have used Red Hat Linux 8 for all our work since last fall, and installed version 9 as soon as it became available. However, we have not been fully content with Red Hat, so we gave SuSE 8.2 a try when it became available this month.

"Better check SuSE packages before you give it a go, since several key applications are not installed by default, like "locate" does not work on the command line."



Can't run "locate" from the command line? Did you run "updatedb" first?
