I duuno, Keith. I am having MOJO problems with SuSe 8.1 as well. It 
seems it has borken
just about EVERTHING.

Example: developeing in AppGen I use an xterm sesssion (Hey no GUI for 
me !!!). 50% of the time
when exiting Appgen and going BACK to the xterm, xterm goes into a 
RACE conidtion an gobbles
up 80%memory and 97% CPU Cycles. I lost ALL of my KDE 3.x settings on 
the standard menu bar,
and even the "Big K" disappeared.

My Jpilot and Pilot link stopped working (Connection for the Clie' PDA).

Yast INSISTS that I install Cups and Cups and nothing BUT Cups for 
printing, even though
I have a library of LPRng printfilters I use for AppGen. I can not 
remove ANY of the
/usr/share/doc/packages documentation (Which is NOW over 1.2GB), 
without YAST
complaining I have borken all my packages and crapping out.

Gesss ... maybe time to try SCO UnitedLinux Beta 2 ...
