Flipping the Linux switch: openSUSE, geeko of many colors

Please, allow me to explain. This week’s FTLS was not at all what I intended it to be. For weeks now, I’ve been toying with idea of dual-booting a Debian based distro with a RPM based distro. Ubuntu Hardy (now reasonably mature enough for day to day use with minimal bork ups) was the obvious choice for a Debian flavor, as it already existed on my hard drive.
