    I know that.

    But I did a clean (format / and /boot partitions) install, and alsa STILL
    cannot find my SB Audigy card, and hotplug/coldplug/lukewarmplug STILL can't
    get anything on my USB going (most notably, my printer).

    ALL of that stuff worked in 9.2 yesterday and in all versions of Linux I
    have tried since installing the hardware several years ago, and it all still
    works in WinXP when I dual boot into that particular septic tank of an OS.

    It does NOT work in SuSE 9.3.

    BTW, I'm not a newbie. I have been running Linux since I downloaded
    0.98-something on floppies quite a few years back. I have seen a LOT of
    distributions and done a LOT of installs, and SuSE just keeps getting worse.
