Guake looks really worth a spin, I just looked at their project page. I will check it out at my next system build, thanks for the pointer!

Thanks! -F

I prefer Guake to Tilda, seems to need less tuning and is a little less ‘glitchy’ for me

and with GNOME 3 I find myself, reluctantly, using Empathy because of its superior G3 integration, I am missing some of those nice Pidgin features tho..

Parcellite looks like a good idea — especially as it is in the distro itself, while Glipper lives in Contrib.

Thanks! -F

I agree.
It does not take a lot of time to get your “workflow” back because everything just works… very productive and efficient.
What I also like are the fonts, they are very polished OOTB and it gives an additional pro-look.
Trying gnome shell but sticking with defaults for now 😉
Also, the Windows integration (AD account, evolution-exchange, nautilus connections) on openSuSE is the best of all linux distro’s
