I have just installed SuSE 10.0 as a new installation.Previous distributions 
were trouble free upgrades 8.2 -> 9.0 (Thanks Jim) -> 9.2 All went well and 
my /home directory (which I HAD backed up) on a seperate partition was 
unaffected! Pluses so far are that my HP Scanjet 3300C is now fully 
supported.

Linux User magazine has the DVD as a cover disc.

I have now got to test the DVD player and audio setups.

Best wishes
