I installed it on HP laptop, froze up solid by just trying to correct repository information. Be careful, repos aren't listed as standard OSS, non-OSS, updates & standard has some kind of version added to them. I'm assuming it'll stay like that until release.

Since everyone raves about the KDE spin, I'm going to give it a try after release. I'm not going to get my hopes up though. I have found opensuse's package management horrible, and kde, well......
Yeah, tried it. Every time I try openSuse it's the same thing. Fonts look terrible, package management is terrible, system unstable.
Good luck.
It does not support laptops at the moment. I installed it and it doesn't recognize a battery, has no brightness control (and also set too dim) and can't hibernate/sleep. I'll try it again a month after release or so...
Haven't tried it out so far, but i do run opensuse and it runs very well.
Once its officially released i will upgrade, which is actually in a couple of days. Time just passes so fast.
My tip, if you have a running system, don't change it. Unless you happy to adjust to it.
Every new release will have its troubles, so i prepare myself to it. Not sure about the filesystem, i might still stay with ext3.
That is a known bug for KDE. That and an issue with LVM are the remaining main issues. I always keep up to date with OpenSUSE as it used to be my favorite OS. I have tried the M7 of Gnome and I had some issues, but performance is nice.
As Suse goes, it is good in my eyes

I guess everyone's experience is different, but with OpenSUSE 11.2, they provided me with a very nice, very fast, very stable KDE desktop and that's why I have high hopes for 11.3 as well... and I realize their package management system isn't the greatest, but at least it's getting better with time. In older OpenSUSE releases, you could easily cripple your system by a small installation mistake.
And if you have font complaints, look here:

That does the trick for me.
(this is 11.2 talk, 11.3 still needs a final release for me
