I used to run Suse back when 8.0 and 9.2 was out. Then it was a KDE only 
distro (the only KDE distro I ever tried). I believe it is now a Gnome 
distro (mainly), but I just had a quick look and see they have a KDE 
version too. Any suggestion on which to choose?  Is Suse deb or rpm 
based?  Does it have normal run-levels defined?

That's what made me think that I must maybe try Debian directly. I quite 
like deb packages and the apt system (and use AptOnCD a lot), and got 
used to the Debian filesystem layout/design from working with Ubuntu. 
But lately Ubuntu seems to be going off it's rockers.
