I have installed SuSE 8.2 with default settings including 
KDE 3.1.1 and
Open Office 1.0.1

The SuSE web site indicates many large upgrades are available and I assume KDE 
and OpenOffice will be similar.
I have a POTS Internet link and get ~ 11 Mb/hr as a download speed in 
practise.

Should I do any upgrading?

Is there a better way of getting upgrades (CD from magazine?)

Do I have to download upgrades in sequence to ensure that neccessary 
dependencies are followed?

Konqueror (3.1.1) crahes every time I try to print a screen page. It is worse 
than M*******t! However it doesnt mean restarting the computer again - just 
Konqueror. Has anyone else met this problem? Should I install Mozilla from 
the SuSE distro as a better bet?

I hope to make it on Tuesday evening.

Thanks

John Kilgour
