Best SuSE forum?


What's the best SuSE forum out there? I know about www.suseforums.com but there isn't enough activity I think.

You can ask all your suse questions here, so this is the best suse forum.

I'm not totally sure about a thread on our forums to vote for the best suse forums that point elsewhere.. hmmm.. maybe you can just go search for suse forums yourself to find out which one you think is best instead of using our resources to find one for yourself.

I thought it was a reasonable question given that there isn't a suse forum here.

but that's just me.

Just to let you know SuSEForums.com has a large user base of around 1000 members and support questions are generally replied to very quickly by members.

Adam,

You've posted this in another thread also. People are free to ask Suse questions here (as well as at your site of course) and Novell is coming on board here soon.

I am aware of that thanks. You board seemed to have a large number of questions about SuSE forums. So I thought i'd let you know.

I have a problem. I just upgraded glibc to glibc-2.3.2-6. Installed via RPM 3 packages. glibc, glibc-devel, and glibc-locale, all 2.3.2-6. All show up under rpm -qa | grep glibc.
Now I CANNOT RPM anything!! rpm -qa works, rpm checks dependencies, but when it actually comes to installing stuff, i get a Segmentation fault, on any and all packages I try to install. This makes it difficult to even go back to old glibc (which was 2.2.2), as I cannot RPM it back into place. Help?

I am on a Suse 8.1 on PentiumIII. I downloaded the RPMs from rpmseek.com

Most of the people who have been here a while know that you have been making a regular effort toward getting SuSE / Novell to represent their product here. I personally have received information from Customer Support Management at SuSE and Novell not only confirming this, but also indicating that it is simply a matter of time until the official representation is a fact here.

I for one want to take a moment to thank you for this site. Although I may not have posted a lot of questions looking for support, I have gotten a lot of help by searching for the content I need assistance with. The large number of SuSE specific posts located within the forums has answered most of my questions.

To the others here, finding your answers can be done either using LinuxQuestions' own search engine, or by searching via google.com with site:linuxquestions.org added to the search criteria. I have included a link that you may use to search the site, below.

Oh, one last thing; don't forget to contribute some money. Become a contributing member if you can.
Anything, even a couple of dollars, is better than nothing, and it will help to ensure that the site stays here to continue to provide the assistance that we all want and need!
Here's the link to search the site...

Search LinuxQuestions.org with Google

Sorry to say this but there not on-board are they.....
Maybe you should stop getting you members hopes up because every time you say there will be a Novell rep here you say later that there won't be!

Actually well, they keep saying they are but then stop responding. They'll come aboard sooner or later.. Jeremy has talked to them off and on many many times but I'm sure they had more things to worry about with being migrated into Novell, etc.
