    I just wish to not have a bugs :-). In fact most of bugs I have to deal
    with or too simple that I can
    catch them by just looking in to the source code while I am in subway or
    couldn't be debugged at all.

    Most probably I'll setup dgb for training, to improve my gdb skills,
    since during school summer
    vacation that just started for me I'll have more spare time (that could
    be eaten buy primary work :-( )

I agree with you that SuSE is probably the best overall Linux distro and I've used many of them starting with Slackware when it was distributed on over 60 floppy disks and ran on my 286 machine IF you could get it to load and compile before the refrigerator bumped the power and reset the machine again:) through RedHat and Umbuntu and a few in the back of books on a CD. ...
