Alright this blog entry is aimed as a suggestion to the openSUSE project chaps, I don't want to get into any holy wars here. The first thing we do every time we deploy or update to the latest version of openSUSE in our lab is get rid of beagle desktop top search tool. Any failure to do so results in shrieks of agony and hair pulling (mine, not theirs;-). I mean why do you ship a tool that grinds the computer to halt at least you can try tone down the search ranges a little or something, should the tool be such a resource hog. I have used tracker on Ubuntu I don't have trouble with it, perhaps there is someone out there who'll read this post and try fix this issue in next release.

OpenSuSe 11 crashes on AMD64
Posted on 10:58 by Unknown
Here is something you got to watch out for if you plan to install OpenSuSe 11 on a AMD 64 machine using the i386 DVD image (insert your reason for doing *that* here). Everything works out fine with the install, but the microcode package (microcode_ctl-1.17-78.1.i586.rpm) which gets started in runlevel 5 wiki will cause your machine to crash and reboot automatically. Other runlevels including failsafe mode will however work, so select those and disable this service from starting or remove the package with 'rpm -e' altogether.
