I'm thinking about moving from Fedora to Suse. I have a few questions before I
try it out..
- How hard/easy is it to setup the ipw2200 package for Suse to use with my
centrino laptop?
Works right out of the box with my centrino/ipw2200 notebook
- Once installed how do I control the wireless interface?
What exactly do you want to control ? Managing access to various WLAN on
locations ? Here "kwifimanager" and "netgo" seems to be good choices ...
- I have a new Treo 650, my Treo 600 would sync with Fedora/Kpilot but not so
with the 650. Is it known to work with Suse?
Sorry no idea / experiences
- What version of KDE is shipping/packaged with Suse v10 ?
3.4.2
- What is the defaulyt filesystem type for Suse, can I choose Reiser via the
install?
reiserfs is the default
- Will redhat RPM's work on a Suse install ?
SuSE uses RPM format but I'm not sure if original redhat RPMs will work ...
Most packages I was looking for had been available as SuSE RPMs.
Therefore there was no need to test redhat RPMs.
- Where do In find additional sources for updates (Like adding repo's for yum)
and how do I configure them ?
http://www.opensuse.org/Additional_YaST_Package_Repositories
http://www.opensuse.org/Package_Repositories
More had been discussed in this mailing list. Google will help you.
- What's the best sources of help. (I found that the Fedora mailing list was
hands-down the best support for Fedora) ?
Similar with SuSE. Mailing lists (there are several available on
lists.suse.com) and NGs news:alt.linux.suse and news:alt.os.linux.suse
are the best information sources
- How stable is Suse v10 and why would I choose the commercial version vs. the
open source project?
With the boxed version you will have less work for some of the
copyrighted multimedia applications/codes. At the final end you will get
all working regardless if you are using the boxed version or
downloadable version.

Never give up !
