GUI problems
I tried installing SUSE 9.3 on my lap-top , if I selected the GUI mode, the screen used to go white and nothing else would happen. I have no porblems with SUSE 10.0. why is that?

It could be the default settings in the xserver, and/or it could be the drivers and/or kernel that came with SuSE 9.3. Maybe look up the chipset and see if anyone else had problems with SuSE 9.3 and that particular chipset.

Forgive my asking the obvious, but if you have a copy of SuSE 10, why try and install SuSE 9.3?

@moe:
ha! well, 9.3 came along with my lap-top.. so, I first tried that, I caught hold of 10.0 later.. I wanted to know why it didnt work with 9.3..
I had asked around, people said it largely depended on the monitor settings and such other things, but those specifications didnt come along with my comp, and let alone that I didnt even know how to change the settings.. So, I thought u people here might know..
anyway, as u said, 10.0 is all i had asked for and more.
