OpenSUSE has released the first version of openSUSE 11.1.  However, this edition is an Alpha edition which means it has a lot of rough edges. 

According to Christop Thiel “While testing this on a Thinkpad R51, the system didn’t boot after first stage installation. We are still looking into this issue (#411937). In addition to that, the default GNOME installation will complain about a missing package (providing gnome-session-branding). With the current bootloader issue, using the DVDs for installing is not recommended, until we have a workaround. Please try the LiveCDs instead!”

Below are what you can find in the openSUSE Alpha release which will be included in the final version of openSUSE 11.1 to be released on December 18th:

  • Linux kernel 2.6.27
  • KDE 4.1.1
  • KDE 3.5.10 (optional)
  • GNOME 2.24
  • OpenOffice.org 3.0
