Switched again: to NetBSD
I will be starting a new blog on NetBSD soon. A link for this new blog will be posted soon.

AFter using Suse for these few weeks, I have finally decided to switch back to Slackware. I started off loving Suse. It had the simplicity of Windows XP and sort of the attractiveness of Mac OSX without the price tag. THe OS holds my hand and just works.
Got sick of the USB 2.0 problem in suse 10.0, among other things, and decided to try out 9.2 which is purportedly rock solid.
When i was using my usb 2 stick to backup some data, i noticed that transfer rates were very low. Turns out this is a problem that other people are having too who use suse 10.0
Yes, it's possible to print under crossover office with suse.
screensaver stopper and set cd-rom speed are especially useful to me cos i use my pc to watch movies a lot.
I found out you could simply add yast sources instead of installing apt. Why install apt when yast works perfectly well?
I go to a university that allows students to connect to its local intranet via VPN using the Cisco VPN client. Unfortunately, the linux Cisco client doesn't always compile properly. It compiled all right on Suse 9.3 but failed to connect properly for reasons I have not yet looked into. On Suse 10.0 it wouldn't even compile.
