OpenSuse 10.1 VS Fedora Core 5 (split from Re: OpenSUSE 10.1)

[Josh Coffman]

Hi,

  Alan mentioned in another thread that OpenSuse has
been a nice change from FC5 despite the update
problems.

  I've been in the Fedora boat since I migrated
(mostly) to linux last year. 

  I'm really curious how they compare, and what
problems people have had with FC5.

  Suse was one of the distro's I was close to picking
before going with FC. FC5 has been largely a big
improvement from FC4 from my experience. It
auto-detected pretty much everything on my HP laptop.
Even the wifi works now thanks to the bcm43xx drivers.
(NDISWrapper worked for me before bcm43xx.)

  What about OpenSuse 10.1 is worth dumping FC5? And
what about waiting for FC6?
