Originally posted by pentup Actually I was. For my purposes at the time. But with inconsistent results, depending on the video cards, drivers and monitors in question. And on how much time I wanted to put into fiddling with stuff. Most of the time seeing banding in gradients wasn't a deal breaker for me.
So without knowing whether this was one or ten years ago and without knowing how many "video cards, drivers and monitors" you went through or what you actually did or failed to do, how is this an answer to the OP's question?

Well, ditto to that as far as I'm concerned. So
IS, according to you, OpenSUSE the best linux for photographers, or not? I still don't see you answering the question...or it would have to be "there is
no best linux for photographers". Is that what you actually wanted to say?
[EDIT]
P.S. I've actually used OpenSuse10 and most versions before it from 7 onwards and I do
not find it the best linux for photographers mostly due to the way it deals with configuration files through YAST2. It does have one of the most up-to-date repositories of software of all of the distros maybe except for the *buntu's of this world.
