I believe MS (the person) is really pissed off at us three. I'm not sure why. What have we done. It seems really serious to him.

But, have never been snip conscious. Must be a top poster thing. Oh

Think Kurt, think who normally argues with him.

I try to read between the lines but from here they all appear blank
Sorry if I missed the intended point. Sometimes I take things too
literally I suppose. Fortunately in the long run I don't really give a rip.
So, you having a good weekend yet? Got beer? I'm gonna hafta make a run
to the store real soon. Need anything?
Since we're so far OT maybe this will bring it back a bit, I got ahold
of a Gateway E-3400 PIII 800MHz box w/512MB RAM, 40GB 7200RPM HDD, runs
Win2K and Redhat 9.0 just dandy, but SuSE 9.1 refuses to install. No
matter what install choice I make it immediately pops to a black screen
w/top left blinking cursor, all I can do is a hard reset. Sounds like
hardware, don't it? Can't find any info from any SuSE sites yet (they're
worse than HP and Intel sites), but I suspect SuSE is just as picky
about hardware as XP is now. I might try an XP install just for the heck
of it and see if it croaks, too. It's an odd-ball system board, a GVC
(Corfu) Motherboard 800-MHz Pentium III R6. AMI BIOS 01.00.P06 08/17/00.
Maybe a BIOS update is in order.

Try installing SuSE 9.1 with acpi=off.

No good. Same story. Even "Safe install" does the same as does "Manual
install". The "kernel loading" progress bar hits the end quickly and
boom; blinky cursor upper left. I really don't think SuSE 9.1 likes this
hardware at all.
It will install and run every other Linux distro I've tried so far. I
just really want to play with SuSE some because at work we are a Novell
house and they are quickly moving to SuSE so I need to try and keep up,
but I don't want to mess with my existing installs on my other PCs.
I really oughta try to convince my boss to give me a decent PC (or two
or three) to dink with at home instead of scarfing and scrounging up
discarded hardware headed for landfill. Hey, at least I got this one
working after everyone else gave up on it and it is a decent Windows/Red
Hat 9.0 PC, so I'm still ahead, ain't I?
It's just a puzzler and you know how I am about puzzles...

Well, then I just don't know. However, 9.1 has given a lot of people
fits, not working on boxen where 9.0 worked great or other distros
don't have a problem. I think it's the "odd number version" syndrome.
I've got 9.1 on an IBM X31 Thinkpad and I'm very happy with it. The
laptop runs much better than it did with 9.0. That said, I've left 9.0
on my main box because everything is working perfectly. You might try
9.0 on the laptop first - you can always update with YOU and/or compile
a newer kernel if you need to.

I haven't been moving in SuSE circles, this is the first I've tried it,
so I wasn't aware there were problems. I have heard the "odd number

and see what happens for the heck of it.
Thanks Malke.
