    I need Suse 10.4 Whr to request?

    There is nothing like OpenSUSE 10.4. The last one was 10.3, and the new one, 11.0 will be released soon. And no, they don't send free CDs. You will have to download it yourself. You don't have to apply anywhere for the download, just go to their site.

    Next time, try posting in English. It's "Write a program", not "wrap". It's "output", not "oupput". Ever heard of Sentence Case ? Or your grammar school forgot to teach you that ?

    Hard to do .. It irritates me when people spread FUD without researching .. It takes a few minutes to verify a story, before posting. And you can see for yourself what negative effect it had ! Anyway, I'm sorry. Also, please copy paste the nick name, if you can't spell it right. Thank you.

    fedora 7 from digit DVD to my DVD?

    No, HE DOES NOT have a point. When you just copy data off the dvd and burn it, the BOOT SECTOR OF THE DVD IS NOT COPIED. Either use the method I said, which is bound to work, or use the digit dvd itself.

    fedora 7 from digit DVD to my DVD?

    There is a way, but I am not sure it will work. If it does, it's the easiest way. 1) Make an iso of the digit DVD, and name it EXACTLY - F-7-i386-DVD.iso Save this file in any suitable location 2) Download the DVD torrent of Fedora 7 from -...

    Amarok 2 Development: Checkout proposed new GUI

    It certainly will be. Thanks to the Qt developers, they have released OSS version of Qt for Windows and mac, so KDE4 onwards almost all KDE applications will run on windows. There is even a KDE4 windows installer in the works :)

    Most suitable distro for laptops.

    True, but I was told in the suse IRC channel that 915resolution does not work in suse because of the RC release of xorg.. By the way, is that true ?

    Most suitable distro for laptops.

    Kalpik: As i already told, since it uses X.org RC, 915resolution does not work with it. Meaning, resolution is an ugly 1024x768 :(
