[Shenlug] New openSuSE 10.2

[Alvin Smith]

I have just installed openSuSE on a Gateway DS M500 notebook without
very much trouble. I am very pleased with the result.  I just had an
issue with installing crossover office and with installing Bibletime.

With crossover office I was getting a ulimit error after it was
installed but during the initial configuration of he program.  To get
rid of the ulimit issue you can set it in
/etc/sysconfig/ulimit and set SOFTVIRTUALLIMIT to 0. You have to be root
to do this but the advantage is that it works for all users on that machine.

With Bibletime, I had to add the source
http://packman.iu-bremen.de/suse/10.0.  There does not seem to be a
10.2 source.  But it worked.

I have had firefox close unexpectedly on several occasions.  And I
have had the display go black and then not respond to mouse or
keyboard to wake the system.

But all in all the system is very nice and very pleasing to look at.
