First Look openSUSE 10.3 i386 DVD
openSUSE
10.3 was released October 4 2007 and I decided to have a first look at
their openSUSE 10.3 i386 DVD. The DVD has both KDE and GNOME
and for this look I decided to install the GNOME Desktop. Downloading
was extremely fast from opensuse.org. I had the iso in a
matter of minutes. Here is what was mentioned at openSUSE.Org
about the new releases:
"The openSUSE team is
proud to announce the release of openSUSE 10.3.
Promoting the use of Linux everywhere, the openSUSE project provides
free, easy access to the world’s most usable Linux
distribution,
openSUSE. openSUSE is released regularly, is stable, secure, contains
the latest free and open source software, and comes with several new
technologies.
openSUSE
10.3 will be supported with security and other serious updates for a
period of 2 years.
This version
contains new beautiful green artwork, KDE 3.5.7 and parts
of KDE 4, SUSE-polished GNOME 2.20, a GTK version of YaST, a new
1-click-install technology, MP3 support out-of-the-box, new and
redesigned YaST modules, compiz and compiz fusion advances,
virtualisation improvements, OpenOffice.org 2.3, Xfce 4.4.1, and much
more!"
I liked the fact that the openSUSE team will be supporting their open
source product for a term of 2 years. This means less full
installs and a comfort of knowing that your distribution os will be up
to date and secure for that amount of time.
The installation of openSUSE 10.3 i386 DVD started off with a beautiful
splash screen of green and then the usual Linux questions that we all
have become so fond of....

I am installing GNOME for this tour but openSUSE comes with many
excellent software packages as well, to name a few; X.org
7.2, Gnome 2.20, KDE 3.5.7, glibc 2.6.1, OpenOffice 2.3 as well as
Firefox 2.0, Thunderbird 2.0, Evolution 2.12, Xen 3.1 and
many more. For the server minded it includes Apache 2.2.4,
MySQL 5, DHCP, FTP and programing packages such as PHP 5.2.4
and GCC 4.2.
  
  
  
Installation wen perfectly onto my machine. I had no issues. Those who use openSUSE should be happy with the new release. Flash Video of openSUSE 10.3 i386 GNOME. webmaster - Review Linux openSUSE Home
