as far as I know, SLED is not gpl, and proprietary to novell therefore the source isnt provided. Dont quote me on this though. I remember years ago trying to sell off old box sets of suse I had purchased from novell on ebay and had my seller status revoked and received nasty emails from novell. Like you said opensuse the source is freely available, and I believe is re distributable but would have to remove any reference to novell in the whole distro. kind of like what centos does with redhat linux. then again, im not a lawyer lol. -- powered by OPENSuSE 10.2 athlon i386 GNU/Linux http://reillyblog.com http://norwichlinuxusersgroup.com 9:24pm up 7:37, 1 user, load average: 0.13, 0.12, 0.07 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
