A perfect example of how polls can mislead.... |

No. Kidding. I just skimmed that, and it seemed very weak to me. I for instance, am in my 40s, haven't taken a college class since 1983, and the only hardware support I find "lacking" is for sound cards. For some reason, I've only ever gotten sound cards to work with SuSE 7.3 and 8.0. For some examples of strange hardware support, I just put Slackware 11.0 on a 700 MHz Pentium 3 box, that a friend's employer's IT department was going to scrap. It had an SiS-based graphics card in it. I got X11 working on that SiS-based card, and put in an original 1995 Matrox Millenium card, which also worked. Dual 1152x864 monitors! De luxe! I am, however, a Slackware user, and I imagine that a poll of self-selecting Slackware users would have a more bizarre distribution than that of OpenSuSE users. |
