SUSE 10.0 released

Ahhh SUSE - The definition of bloat 😛

I wish they would release a version that was 'OS Only' instead of the 4GB of 3 different versions of all kinds of crap

That's why Ubuntu is my distro of choice at the moment.
 
Yeah I prefer one cd distros, but I'm definantly getting Suse. Yast seems very sweet. I'll have to play with it. I'll probably just do a network install though, I don't want to burn 5 discs..

edit: One more thing: can anyone supply a torrent link?
 
anyone else's downloads clocking at 0.3 kb/s? Not my connection, i know that, because I usually get 40-80/sec. this is going to take... :shocked: 895:23:56!!!!!!!!

If you want to prevent bloat get gentoo. You only put "exactly" what you want on gentoo. IT doesn't put any crap on there you don't want. Yes its a lot harder and takes a lot longer to set up but its more optimized (you compile everything for your processor) than binary distributions.
 
Thanks R3MF. In addition to the OSS release, looks like the retail/eval releases are happening concurrently. I suspect the retail/eval ISOs are slightly cut down from the retail media.

Right now it's impossible to grab the torrent(s) from SUSE's release links.

What does it mean exactly by EvalDVD?

I think it means virtually the same as the retail box release, but without any support.

SUSE used to never release installable ISOs, and only offered a LiveEval version and installation by FTP. More recently they've offered these installable ISOs that they call "Eval" versions. Note that in R3MF's link to the question about SUSE's release announcement, "retail CD" and "eval DVD" appear to refer to the same software.

Of course, I could be wrong. 😉
 
there are three versions:

1) commercial - (£35.99)
> OSS core
> licensed apps
> commercial apps *

2) eval - (free d/l)
> OSS core
> licensed apps

3) OSS - (free d/l)
> OSS core
