[quote]Seriously, I have no idea how the heck Ubuntu is more popular than Suse.[/quote]
i am using linux for 10 years now among other operating systems. from slackware to ubuntu on the desktop i came along suse v4-9. ubuntu was the first release that took away the pain for patching the kernel (for a lot of hardware on my laptop). the default settings are reasonable for "joe average" and a power user - if it gets hairy i'll open a term anyway.
and then, ubuntu is built upon "Debian GNU/linux". if you have not ever uses apt, you may be thinking rpm's are a nice thing.
oh and while we are at Debian, read their manifesto<nobr> <wbr></nobr>:)
