Sure. The problem is, you're not installing MEPIS.
Forget, for a moment, that this is a MEPIS forum on a MEPIS website, so why are you asking about SUSE?
But I will tell you my experience: I had Suse 9.1 installed on my box and it gave me fits, mostly in the upgrade and sound department. For example, I always had to unmute everything when I booted. Every time. And for updating and getting software? Forget it! I want to try a program: too bad, it has nine other package dependencies and I don't know if I'm getting the right ones and installing them in the right order, etc. Yikes!
Enter MEPIS! Easy installation over Suse without ruining my Home folders. Then, Debian's apt-get (using SYnaptic)? Sheesh! What could be easier!
I even wrecked something somewhere so that KDE wouldn't boot. Just put the MEPIS Live disc back in, ran the fixer-upper for the Display settings and oulia! back in action.
So, get MEPIS and forget about Suse!
