Just some heads-up:

I've done some quick checks and so far Opera 7.53, VMware 3.2.1pl1
and Acrobat Reader 4.05 appear to work fine with the SuSE 9.1 base.

Opera7 just works, no apparent problem. Flash plugin works too.
The aspell library loads fine too with suse_base-9.1nb1.

VMware is not flawless tho. If I start the virtual machine, then do
'Power Off', it spits error:

VMware PANIC: (ide1:0) NOT_IMPLEMENTED F(831):712
VMware PANIC: (VMX) AIO: NOT_IMPLEMENTED F(831):712
VMware PANIC: (ide0:0) NOT_IMPLEMENTED F(831):712
VMware PANIC: (VMX) AIO: NOT_IMPLEMENTED F(831):712
Panic loop

which was not there with the older libraries. Besides this, it seems
to work fine.

Acrobat Reader also just works without any apparent problem.

I'm starting to download the Linux mozilla/firefox and will try
to check those too.
