I finally got around to downloading OpenSuSE 10.2, and upgrading my machine at work (old Dell Optiplex GX-150). The following are just a few comments on my upgrade experience (which was a lot better than some of the other stories I've seen on this list over the past several months).
- graphical install didn't work as it said "you don't have enough memory or X windows could not be started"; no big deal, just used the text-based install (w/ no mouse) - online update worked fine during the install, and so far no problems updating after the upgrade either - I left it overnight while it was installing packages and when I came in this morning, the screen was now in a graphical install mode; curious... - it chose the wrong video card, and does not seem to let me choose a different one - even from YAST after the upgrade (this seems very odd); but it's just onboard video, and it appears to be working just fine - all of my prior settings are still there, and with what little poking around I have done so far, everything else seems to be working All in all I thought it was a pretty painless upgrade!
