SuSE, openSUSE openSUSE 11.0 is one of the most anticipated Linux distribution releases of recent times. The openSUSE team released version 11.0 yesterday, and it comes with the latest KDE4, GNOME, kernel, all the usual latest and greatest. In addition, it carries a few new Compiz Fusion plugins, improved package management (still a weak spot for openSUSE), and a brand new front-end to the installer. Reviews are starting to trickle in, and they are almost exclusively positive.

I have in the past griped about the release date of 11.0, being just before the arrival of KDE 4.1, X.org 7.4, Alsa 1.0.17, but long after the last release of KDE3 and older versions of X.org/Alsa.

However, the current plan for 11.1 of December will be able to include a mature 4.1 desktop and hopefully KDE4 versions of the big KDE apps like amarok, digikam etc. That will be the *real* KDE desktop we are all after.

Roll on 11.1

would you bet your house + wife on KDE, Xorg and ALSA adhering to their release schedules?

There is always a new-"something" and there isn't even a promise it will be great for public consumption, like KDE 4.0.0 (well, we knew that one in advance), etc...
