I'm not sure if you know, but on android devices, YouTube limits the quality to 360p and 1080p enhanced bitrate which requires YT Premium, video example, Another Microsoft Office Bootleg – Unboxing & Scam investigation. On desktop 720p and 1080p are all available without Premium.
Maybe YouTube wants more YT Premium users.

I bought the 7.0 professional version instead and the books that came with the package were really cool. My first SuSE and also my first Linux install ever was a 6.4 version on a Walnut Creek sampler, but that was quite difficult to get working properly on my P100 Laptop. The 7.0 experience went a lot smoother already. Warm feelings. Much later I got the beloved Chameleon mascot plushy from a colleague of mine.
I can confirm that configuring the graphics mode in those early pre-Xorg days was a nightmare. xf86config was basically useless for anything better than 640×480 at 16 colors, and that's why a lot of distros started shipping their own tools, like SaX in SuSE, Xconfigurator in Red Hat and so on, which usually had much better success rate at actually getting you to a usable desktop.
Fortunately, things got much better with XFree86 4.x, which this version of SuSE seems to include alongside earlier 3.x (probably to maximize compatibility) and then Xorg, so by the mid-2000s all those nightmares of X configuration programs turned into all but just a bad memory.
Pro tip: on most Linux desktop environments, you can hold Alt and drag the window by anywhere in its contents to move it when you can't see the title bar.
2:55 Love the stickers!
I still felt like this is "the linux experience" some time ago when trying modern distros like mint, ubuntu, pop os, and I couldn't get the nvidia drivers and steam to work at the same time. I tried everything, installing from command line, different versions, and most of the times the nvidia drivers broke the installation and I had to force reinstall nouveau to have at least a working GUI. Steam sometimes worked but without proper drivers games were unplayable.
SUSE Linux is really interesting😎
35:04 I wish we could find a standalone copy of this thing. Especially since pacman is now a completely different thing in the linux space.
I have a copy of SuSE Linux pro 8.2 that I’ve tried and failed to install 🙁
I have gotten windows 11 to work on a 2010 MacBook
I actually think Suse did a nicer job than Redhat with the installer.
That’s no bee…
I remember using a similar install of KDE back then. It's a good thing modern KDE is nothing like it.
No experience with Suse, but used RHL 7.2 circa 2000. Getting the xserver configured was work. The Xserver locked up more often than the Kernel.
You could frequently kill the Xserver with [CTRL]+[ALT]+[BKSP]. I think you could move windows with ALT+Left click and drag I think. In RH it appears to work with gnome, kde and twm. (I think I used used VESA when configuring X.)
Star Office from Star Division (the original creator) was free for personal and educational use but required payment for business use. also the check lists on the box don't tell the full story of the differences between the personal and pro versions of SuSE the pro version had many more games and other software the Pro version was 6 disks and also came with a live CD which could run entirely off the CD or with a partial install in disk image files stored in a Win9x fat partition also for the best SuSE classics experience i would recommend SuSE 8.x which was the last release before Novel acquired them and did Novel things to them.
NVidia cards weren't always branded. It looks like right after you mentioned there were no NVidia cards, the very next page listed Riva TNT/Riva TNT2 and Riva128 which are NVidia chipsets.

bruh i just found a huge cache of old linux distros at an estate sale and this video comes out. Mandrake linux, redhat, suse, freebsd, corel linux. tons
now, we all know that vintage PC's are on high demand for retro gaming, a lot of collectors. Now where did you get a Windows 98 PC for $5????? I'm calling you a BS'er. And if was only $5 that means you had other deals involved you not telling us. but in reality, a tech like yourself would never be scammed to buy a $5 win98 pc when you know they are worth a lot more than that. You said nothing about adding specs or mods. Your video heading is click bait.
I love how KDE has been randomly locking up occasionally since the 90s
I always forget that GIMP was called THE GIMP back in the day.
Another awesome video! I used a SUSE version of linux for a server way back then – it was a pretty stable system and competed with Red had at the time for server installations. (I ultimately went with Red Hat for other servers and was much happier) – Thanks again!
Sussy Linux
i live in Fürth, Germany – The town where SuSE have his roots 🙂 but they dont get far, the head quarters are in Nuremberg, the town next to Fürth 😀
Now that was a trip down memory lane 😀 SuSE 7.x was what I started with years ago 🤓 It had this one advantage over Win98 that sold me: It did play mp3 without starting to stutter the moment some other program required CPU cycles and as we all know: music is important 🤣
11:18 No X11 configuration
13:26 Well, well, well, if isn't the consequences of my own actions
Can you try updating to whatever last version you get from command line or yast updater? Thanks 🙂
Woah, that merch for SuSe and Linux are pretty damn cool. Do you do scans or archiving for all the software, booklets, and other odds and ends that come with these kits? I'm not sure if these would possibly be seen as lost media nowadays – and I absolutely don't say this because I'd love to get prints of those stickers.
Hey I just want to let you know that if you hold the ALT or WIN key(depending on the era of Linux desktop you're using) you can drag windows from anywhere inside them without needing the title bar.
I got a boxed copy of SUSE linux professional 9. It has lots of optical disks. and a book.
Also with those freezes I would have reseated the CF card, feels like it was losing connection with the drive.
Some Linux window managers let you move a window by holding down [Alt] and dragging anywhere inside the window to move it, which was helpful for instances where the window was larger than the screen area.
I think that sometime after 2007 they reworked the X11 server so that it can autoconfigure itself without all that setup.
They got a whole arcade in the game section
"We have adobe acrobat reader" wait adobe actually made a version for linux?
FYI the RIVA/ RIVA 128 is what you use for an nvidia card on the installer, you pssed it several times.
What about the riva tnt or riva tnt2 if its nvidia?
I remember my brother buying SUSE 7 and us both being super excited to install it. But after we ran through the installer on CD 1 and rebooted, LILO would just endlessly scroll "1010101010101" and we had no idea how to troubleshoot the issue in those days.
Recently got openSUSE Tumbleweed installed on my Thinkpad. It's definitely my favourite distro. Gonna try out Fedora Kinoite sometime soon though, probably on my main PC.
