In fact, due to time limitations, I was only able to get and install the LIVECD version of openSuse 11.1 Now I am wondering, whether there is any software I really need to have for that distribution to make my Linux experience - let's say more satisfactory. Any hints would be great, With best regards, padrino Weblog (german) Flickr Space
