[scribus] Pagemaker vs Scribus

[Roger]

I find it very usable, pretty robust, and acceptable fast, more stable
than Pagemake in particular, and significantly more ergonomic than
InDesign, though granted there is room for improvement, at least in
1.3.3.x !

I find Scribus useable and works well most of the time
however:
I'm using 1.3.5 and reckon that Scribus has slowed since moving to Qt4.
I still get the dreaded "Scribus crashes due to signal 11" which is a totally 
meaningless error message to a DTP user trying to get a document out.
Well maybe not meaningless, it means, "I lose work, have instant shutdown, then 
restart Scribus".

I was fortunate, in that until I upgraded the linux kernel after installing a 
new video card, that damn fault was not so prevalent. It is now though.

Off subject ----- Has anyone actually set up a Nvidia Geforce 8600GT video card 
in Linux (fc8) it required a kernel upgrade and then the problems start.

Help appreciated
