    Posting from it now with Mozilla Firebird.. noticed an odd quirk with the news tables on my site tho..

    Either way.. Nice shit. easiest install ever and seems very user friendly. I hope to get into it.

    YaST is a fairly good installer. I used SuSE 7.2 for about a year as my sole OS once, it was good. Nice balance between user-friendliness and power.

    The odd quirk would be down to Mozilla rather than SuSE. If you're missing Verdana and co., visit http://corefonts.sourceforge.net/.

    Well I went to install nvidia system drivers (for nforce stuff) via a Suse 9.0 rpm off Nvidias site and my internet decided to stop working

    modprobe nvnet gave me a buncha crap, something about the drivers having to do with GPL, and having undefined characters etc..

    Even uninstalling it wouldn't fix it.. at a loss here... ugh..

    Oh yeah, installing Nvidia drivers is always a lot of "fun". I haven't done it in a while so I can't be any help. All I know is that they distribute a GPL part and a binary driver - the GPL part loads the binary driver.

    Odd. I managed to get Windows fonts working just fine on SuSE, and that was an ancient version.

    Well its possible my n00b ass fucked something up.. I mean, the system fonts look fine, but anything in a web browser looks like pixelated shit

    I think all you need to do is configure 'zilla/FireBird so that it knows to use the TrueType font server (whatever it's called). Uninstall your browser and reinstall?
