Re: anybody tried the opensuse 10.3 version?

"The problem with Suse is that applications are not at default UNIX places (eg. /opt vs. /usr/bin). There are systems executables where you may follow a loooong chain of symlinks in order to find the right file."

That might interest the technies but for a normal user all that counts is that the distro looks good and works fine and there is where Suse seems to get better every time.

Well, we implement software for cross platform applications in our company. Imagine how people cry sometimes...

It is not just about KDE, it's the rest as well...

I was surprised there was no tool to chase down symlinks. I just googled and found an answer and proposed solution.

(also as Billie noted, KDE4 is under /usr in openSUSE)
