    11.4 or Tumbleweed

    I will be moving my laptop from Ubuntu to openSUSE (Installed Ubuntu on it when openSUSE was at 11.0 or 11.1 when the new KDE wasn't quite ready for prime time) and I was wondering do you recommend installing 11.4 or the new tumbleweed rolling update version?

    If it were me, I'd try both since they are free to download and install, just to see which really best suits my own personal tastes and computer hardware. Either way, do let us know how it all turns out.

    so far it been painless, the only thing that stopped me for a second was I thought I had a 250 gig hard drive, when I had a 150 gig hard drive. I am formatting the entire disk with a separate home directory partition.

    Tumbleweed is not 11.4 it comes from the factory repo so potentially there could be problems, though the project is supposed to iron these out. This is fine if you just want to play with OS's but if you want a stable system stick with the pure disto.
