I think I tried it back with 2.0.11 or so - it basically involved
compiling everything (bar mysql and the kernel) myself.
After that, I figured I could just install it on FreeBSD, where at least
compiling is made easy.
Also note that currently SuSE 8.1 is the oldest "supported" desktop-OS
from SuSE and with the release of 9.2 next week will probably move to
the "unsupported" state pretty soon.
Also, I found SuSE 8.1 to be very slow (compared to later versions, and
SLES).
The FreeBSD-port of rt is very good - it even found a missing dependency
that testdeps somehow hadn't mentioned to me. ;-)
