Well It certainly didn't replace yast's missing functionality, but It 
was alot easier to set up than I thought it would be. I just read the 
faq and tips on the website and most of my questions were answered.

Be forwarned that although I had great results others have reported 
dificulties. I started with a Fresh Full install of SuSE8.1 and was 
willing to leave my computer running for a couple of days while the 
packages were downloaded (aparantly ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse serves 
its files through a straw). I allowed apt to do a full upgrade of my 
system although there are ways to have it do less, thus saving download 
time

Good luck
