I did the same installation on SuSE 7.0 professional as on SuSE 6.4 on simpler hardware: K6II 266, S3 GX2 graphics (noname), 1 IDE HD, 1 IDE CDROM, 1 SCSI adapter NCR53C810 (onely as reserve, no device connected), PCI sound 1024 live retail (ct4760 board). Onely on minor problem with this installation: the KDE menu entries for Photo Paint 9 were lacking. Have to be transferred "manually" from the 6.4 installation of the other box to the SuSE 7.0 installation. Everything else seems to be as under SuSE 6.4. > No SCSI on my work machine but otherwise I don't see any differences > that would cause a problem.

Several possibilities come to my mind: - this discussion about WPO 2000 happened before I subscribed to this list some days ago. - (different from Larry Marshall and me) there is consensus that WPO 2000 is a bad product and nearly no one has bought it. - there is a much better Office product. Which? - (different from Larry Marshall) there is general consensus about mandrake: don't use it for WPO 2000. Joachim
