SuSE was my first Linux system and it helped a lot to spark my interest. Yast (software manager) and SaX (XFree86 configuration tool) were a Godsend for a noob like me in 199x.
It's still solid today, and I hold it in high regards, even if I moved to greener Linux pastures.
- Propelloni 2y agoI see what you did there :)
- sgt 2y agoYaST was pretty clunky but rock solid!
- cgio 2y agoMy first Linux system too. Back when downloading a distro was hard with available bandwidth, I got it boxed, with quite a few manuals included in the box! Still have them somewhere alongside my copies of free x86 documentation from Intel.
- Zardoz84 2y agoSuSE 5.1 (only a light version that came with a magazine) and 5.3 was the first linux distro that I really liked. YaST was really great to install anything from the 6 cdroms. I have yet the copy.
