[ale] Suse 9.0

[Dow Hurst]

Some of the kernel backported patches speed up responsiveness.  On the 
same hardware it seems noticeably faster to use.  This was a PII 350MHz 
with 256Mb RAM and a 6Gb hard drive.  Made a real difference over 8.2.  
Could be some improvements in KDE as well.  It is worth the money in my 
opinion for the IDE patches and kernel patches.  Plus you can play with 
the 2.6 kernel they provide.  Lots of software.
