Dear Linux Users,

the latest SuSE release, SuSE Linux 7.2, will be available
starting mid-June and comes with more convenience and performance for
deployment on desktops and servers. Building on SuSE's successful launch

of 7.1, the newest release highlights increased security and extensive
multimedia entertainment features.

The SuSE Linux 7.2 Desktop, based on the graphical user interface
KDE 2.1.2, boasts numerous improvements: "Konqueror" combines all
features of a web browser and file manager into one single tool.
Now Konqueror supports all common web formats, as well as Netscape
Communicator plug-ins for displaying Flash, RealAudio, and
RealVideo media. SSL (Secure Socket Layer) constitutes a secure
basis for banking transactions in Linux. In addition, KDE 2.1.2 is
a useful tool to perform user-, group-, and company-specific
configuration settings. When a new desktop look is desired, one of
fourteen full-fledged desktop styles can be selected with a
button-click. Additionaly, GTK themes (Gimp Toolkit) and designs
of the latest GNOME desktop version 1.4 can be integrated by
choice.

The sound support in SuSE Linux 7.2 has been improved considerably. A
host
of applications is provided for music fans, including a MP3 player, a
drum
computer,a midi keyboard, and a multi-function editing studio. Just in
time for the new currency: Most SuSE Linux applications now support the
Euro symbol.

*** Focus on Security

Security issues are increasingly gaining importance for private
users, too. When installing SuSE Linux 7.2, users have the
possibility of creating a personal firewall with a mouse-click.
Anna Kournikova and other viruses are eliminated with AMaViS (A
Mail Virus Scanner). AMaViS interacts with all common mail servers
and is suitable for use in enterprises, too. Sensitive information
can be stored in encrypted form, e.g. on a laptop, preventing
unauthorized disclosure even in the event of theft. This
implementation is powered by the "loop back-mounted crypto file
system", which provides unencrypted access to data only after
successful authentication and subsequent mounting of the file
system.

*** Power for Professionals

SuSE Linux 7.2 offers state-of-the-art Linux technology - the
advanced Kernel 2.4.4, based on glibc 2.2.2. Administrators of
heterogeneous networks are provided with the authentication tool
Kerberos5, which is popular within the Windows realm. Easy-to-use
YaST2 front-end installation facilitates the configuration of
printer subsystems LPD and CUPS and enables toggling between the
two systems with a button-click.

*** Installation Support included

>From June 15th on, SuSE Linux 7.2 for IA32 will be available
directly from the manufacturer as well as from bookstores and
software retailers. The recommended retail price is EUR 39,22 plus
VAT for SuSE Linux 7.2 Personal (3 CDs, 3 manuals, 60 days of
installation support) and EUR 56,86 plus VAT for SuSE Linux 7.2
Professional (7 CDs, 1 DVD, 5 manuals, 90 days of installation
