SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10

Your Linux is ready
I just updated two servers in the office to SLES 10 – officially launched today.

Things have improved since the internal alpha and beta releases – no problems so far – and very good hardware detection.

I’m writing a document on installing WordPress on SLES 10 – I’ll have that out soon.

[Edit – SLES 10 and WordPress 2.0.3 are running nicely together in my tests. I’ll update the Evil ZEN Scientist blog server tonight and see where that gets me.]

This blog is now running on SLES 10 – woo!

# tail /etc/SuSE-release
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 (i586)
VERSION = 10

Citysearch and badly written content filtering

I use Citysearch to look for new and interesting places to eat and go out.

It won’t let me enter my location ‘Draper’ – it complains about ‘Inappropriate Content’:

Here’s my location:

Here’s the complaint:

SNAG-0003.png

Looking at the content all I can assume is that ‘Draper’ contains ‘rape’ – and that’s bad.

I hope they don’t extend the service to people living in Cockermouth or Scunthorpe.
