Hello, my system manager is about to change our version of linux from Mandrake (I can't remember or find the version number) to open SUSE 10.2. He is not an old-style starlink manager with sympathy for things astronomical but very much a pure linux system manager who maintains desktops for many groups apart from us. Thus he does not want much hassle with software installation. My question re STARLINK is, should I be looking at the last official release from 2004 or the version that can be obtained via CVS? Although I have installed the latter myself on my laptop (SUSE 10.1), I worry that it is still nor a stable release or am I wrong? I should say that our current version dates from before even the 2004. What I want to avoid is telling him to go somewhere and his encountering installation problems. Tom
