I just do some internet surfing, social networking on my laptop.
Right now I am using Ubuntu 64bit.
What would you say about OpenSuse?

It does just as fine as any other Linux distro...

Unfortunately, that doesn't help...

Well...what kind of answer are you looking for then? In your original post you are asking what people think of OpenSuse, and I gave you a legitimate opinion. I have used about a half a dozen different major Linux distributions over the past 12 years and there does not really seem to be any particular one better than the other. Of my top two that I like to use, would have to be Ubuntu and OpenSuse.

Thanks; that was useful...
I have used various distros so far, there are pros and cons of all...
I liked the freedom Fedora gave, but was to fragile..
Ubuntu is stable and nice, but is for novice users only I would say... no freedom as in changing configuration, no control of many parts of the UI.
Let's see what does OpenSuse gives...

Just as a thought, if your computer can handle a virtual machine, you might want to look into those as well. I use Oracle's VirtualBox with a couple virtual machines to check out. I have an OpenSuse virtual machine that also runs Mono to experiment with.

Yes, I can relate to that as well

 huh? ...you do have the freedom to change those things... not sure exactly how easy you want it but I'm using Ubuntu and it's customised to how I want it (dumped Unity).
|
|
|
|
|
that's exactly what I was talking about... I could not find UI configuration editor which disable/change Unity.

You probably didn't look hard enough... there are Unity tweak tools, I believe the newest Ubuntu release has one that comes with it (no need to install it) but previous versions didn't, so you had to install it or you could edit the associated files through the terminal. To install it all you really have to do is look for the tools in their software center (or whatever it's currently called) which is very user friendly.
If you don't want to use Unity at all, you just have to install an alternate "interface shell", I use mostly Gnome classic (version 2.x) but Gnome 3 is not bad. If you deal with a lot of graphics in your applications (as I do) Gnome classic is probably your best choice as it doesn't hog any resources at all.

Thanks.. that was really very much insightful..

And this is what I was talking about that its not a single step to change Unity...
The Ubuntu Settings page is so small; hides most of the changes a non-novice user will be looking for...

Let me try this one... thanks..

I have been using OpenSUSE as my Desktop-OS for quite some time, as a replacement for Windows. It was the only distro that correctly recognized all hardware. Quite simple to install, got Wine and Mono on there.
Lot's of configuration options in the UI, but most examples on the internet will use the shell to change those.

An important question to ask is: is your hardware supported by the Linux you want to use? And typically you'll find that out only by installing that Linux on your computer...
Of course, you can use a boot manager and share a data partition. But at some installation a Linux might report a problem when updating the boot manager ("write protected")...
Eventually I installed Windows, getting rid of those problems.

Never encountered a one of this kind... I have used RedHat, Ubuntu, Live Mint, Fedora, Debian and couple of others till date...

I do not remember which one it was with the write protected error. The different distros used different versions of the boot manager and were not able to update it correctly in all cases - I had to manually edit afterwards several times.
I tested Ubuntu 10 and 11, OpenSuse, Suse Server, Suse Desktop, and CentOS; all 64 bit.

Can't create table '.\userdb\od.frm' (errno: 150).
Getting this error while creating following table in mysql...
create table od(no. int,foreign key(no.) references emp(empno));
|
|
|
|
|
"no." is a strange column name - I never use dots or commas in a column name. Try "no" or "number" instead.
By the way, does your MySQL user have the right to create tables?
|
|
|
|
|
This is a foreign key error caused by the use of "." in your column identifyers. If you use capital letter format, for example: "ItemNumber" or underscores ("item_number") instead and you should be able to execute. Good luck

I have a button in my form and on click of that button I am writing this code....
<pre>
OdbcCommand cmd ;
cmd = new OdbcCommand("abc", cn);
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
I have made a procedure named abc in database which is returning only one row from login table..So i am just checking that on click of that button my procedure should run but while debugging when i come to cmd.ExecuteQuery() it throws following error..
ERROR [42000] [MySQL][ODBC 5.1 Driver][mysqld-5.0.77-community-nt]You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'abc()' at line 1.
So plz tell me what should be the problem.

I appreciate your help all the time...
