Review: openSUSE 11 Beta 2
openSUSE 11 is currently in beta still, and will be officially released in June. I downloaded and installed it using the KDE 4 LiveCD, but was rather disappointed with what I saw.
openSUSE/KDE 4
As for its look, KDE 4 ("openSUSE edition") is quite impressive, though I'm not sure it is ready for much more then tracking the development. The following details my attempts at making it work for me.
Installation
I still think openSUSE's installation procedure is way too technical and far from being intuitive. Though easy to finish successfully, YaST is awkward, too detailed, and the installation involves too many stages (especially when compared to other desktop distros, such as Ubuntu, or even PC-BSD and DesktopBSD, which manage to get it done with quite effectively).

Well, on last two days I installed the openSUSE 11 Beta2 using a liveCD with KDE 4. Amazing. Congratulations openSUSE Team. Its really a great job! Is so easy to use the installer, with good interactivity.
But, nothing is perfect.
