[CS-FSLUG] SUSE again

[kellyarmstrong at prodigy.net]

I'm currently running SUSE 9.0 and was thinking of upgrading to 9.1. I 
was wondering if you think it would be worth the effort. The main thing 
I see is it uses the 2.6 kernel.
Also I was wondering where konqueror keeps the bookmarks so I could save 
them if I upgrade.

I'm back in SUSE again, this time instead of installing though the "safe 
settings" option I installed it by inserting hdb=nodma into the text 
area 
after selecting the regular install method.

I find it strange that my CD-Rom drive is the second (slave) device on 
my 
first IDE cable, when initially booting its seen as hdb but as soon as 
Linux 
has gotten to the init scripts it seems to have changed to hdc :-/ , 
either 
way hdb=nodma usually works in most distributions except in Mandrake 
where it 
doesn't seem to be needed and in PCLinuxOS which sometimes picks up on 
it but 
not all the time.

My music no longer seems to skip, everything seems to be running decent 
except 
for X11 which starts to show strain when extracting a 413 Mb tar.gz 
file.
