On days like this, I agree with you. The sun is shining the birds are
singing...the builders are replacing every window in this hall. Still,

Yeah well...maybe next year :P

SuSE and I never got on - but I did finally get progeny installed on
some real hardware for this review and I have to say it's quite pwetty.
It fucked up in a few places, had far too old DRI modules that didn't
agree with the running X server (obviously a bug) but it did run xine 10
minutes after it was "out of the box".
