open suse

so, I've been trying out opensuse.
  - xen is working, although I don't have any guest os running right now.  I thought about using my ubuntu partition, but it complained about a missing mbr, and I'm not sure that it is worth fixing that
 - it does not have as many prepackaged catalyst bits, so I'm using cpan
 - I'm not sure I like yast, the gui manager, it may just take some getting used to, but
   it seems to be nonintuitive, make things more cumbersome than they need to be
 - I'm hoping to upgrade the kernel soon, because the video support is not great,
  I can't do full screen video on the amd fusion system yet.
 - At some point I want to see how well it runs windows xp as a guest os, it would be
   nice if I could migrate the kids games to it.
