I second that. Except that the 7.2 release almost made me look
elsewhere. But 9.0 and 9.2 have been solid for us. 9.3 looks good but we
will probably wait for 9.4 before changing our production version from
9.0.

My only problem with SUSE (mentioned earlier on this list) is that even
though drivers for video4Linux-2 are happily provided, there is no way
to get the system to use them in any integrated fashion. One needs to
remove the video4linux drivers and then load the v4l2 ones explicitly.
Minor thing.
