at the least back up your /home directory, which if you have a normal
install will include all of your music, photos, movies, letters to Aunt
Tilley and emails from HotFoxy…
and, if you have a database or (say) and apache set up outside of your
/home, only you know about that…and, not anyone here can recommend
what we don’t know you have…
some folks suggest other directories (like /etc which holds most of the
working system configs
some folks might suggest you do a full disk backup–just in case you
don’t like what you see and wish you had your old system back, easily!
there are probably 200 questions like yours in these fora, and each will
draw a variety of opinions, so a good google
like say site:forums.opensuse.org “what to backup” - Google-søgning
will bring a large variety of answers…all either exactly fitting your
needs, or not.
> Bugs with 11.4?
of course! read around in the fora here…there are plenty…
currently 11.4 has 1228 bugs (while 11.3 has 1252) see:

and, if you go here you can read all about’em http://tinyurl.com/423cae5
btw: if 11.3 is working for you, why change? some say: If it ain’t broke
don’t fix it.

Thanks.
I appreciate your long and detailed answer!
I now have a new question. Is “fora” really a word?
