I've spent an unreal amount of the past 2+ weeks installing, upgrading & using Ubuntu/Kubuntu/Edubuntu/Xubuntu. On the KDE desktop, there's very little difference between SUSE and Kubuntu, other than YaST. That's a big difference. I find Adept inept, and Synaptic little better. Apt-get is nice, but only when it works, which is woefully less than 100% of the time. Under the covers Ubuntu is Debian. I've yet to find anything Debian does differently from SUSE that I like better the Debian way. e.g., they cram virtually everything, including X, into runlevel 2, making 3 and 5 totally equivalent to 2. Sudo for every system task you need to do in Ubuntu is a monumental PITA. Its near single purpose CDs can be a big headache. The CD they'll mail you for free is wholly unsuited to installation into a multiboot environment. Its help forums seem to be populated almost entirely by the clueless n00b types. Far more questions get asked than seem to get useful answers. I can't go so far as to say Ubuntu is bad, but the only time I'll recommend Ubuntu over SUSE is for a child's educational purposes -> Edubuntu. -- "The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped."
