In office, I can have RedHat AS 4.0.
And I like to configure a DB2 for home lab system.
Which one is better OpenSuse 10.3 or CentOS?

I have DB2 V9 running under SUSE 10.3 (32 bit) on a core 2 duo system with
no problems. I backed out a Fedora 64 bit system as too few common
applications support 64 bit Linux. This includes the db2 developers
workbench. My system has to operate both as a server and workstation.

I need 64-bit, I can run 32-bit clients on Windows.
So should I try Open Suse 10.3?

I would suggest CentOS because it is a clone of RedHat not SuSY.

I don't know if either is "better" than the other (not having used
either personally), but if you're looking for an environment similar to
your office setup, I'd suggest CentOS simply because it's based on RH.
I've heard SuSE 10's pretty good (I'll be setting up a couple of DB2
servers based on 64-bit SLES 10 fairly soon, so I'm hoping what I've
heard is true :-).
Given the choice though, I'd throw Ubuntu on there (server for a
headless no X setup, desktop otherwise) just because it's dead easy and
there's a sizeable community for support.
Is there anything specific you're looking for in the distro (aside from
64-bit support)?
Cheers,
Dave.

Both RedHat and SUSE are either "recommende d" or "validated" platforms for
DB2 (depending on the exact release of DB2 and Linux you are talking about).
I don't see CentOS listed, even though it may be a clone of RedHat.
The list of recommended and validated platforms can be found here (select
the version of DB2 at the top of the page): http://www-306.ibm.com/software/data...platdist9.html
I believe that all of the TPC benchmarks that IBM has conducted suing the
Linux OS use SUSE, so I am sure that IBM has a lot of confidence in it. http://www.tpc.org/tpch/results/tpch_perf_results.asp

DB2 server runs well on 64 bit. It was the problems with other general
linux apps that caused me to revert to 32 bit.

Sure, if you like to use whatever IBM recommends and pay for it.

DB2 server runs well on 64 bit. It was the problems with other general
linux apps that caused me to revert to 32 bit.
Express-C 9.5 runs well on an AMD Athlon X2 in either 32 or 64 bit mode
using openSUSE 10.3. 9.1 won't run or install, but that's a Java/kernel
issue where 9.1 refuses to work around a resource lock/unlock problem. 9.5
warns of the problem and motors on. The issue affects the db2cc GUI - the
underlying DB runs fine but you lose all the Java functionality. As I said,
9.5 (and 8.x) work w/o a hitch here.
Like Colin, I went back to the 32 bit version because of unrelated 64 bit
Java issues.

I'm in the market for a server to run some python code which is
optimized via psyco.
Sun T2100 servers come with Solaris 10, which comes with python
pre-installed.
Since those servers use the 64-bit Opteron box, I would assume that the
Python is a 64-bit version. (Does anyone know whether this is
true/false?)

Just installed Developer Workbench on my Linux box (OpenSUSE 10.1).
I can start the "Updater" facility without problems.
However when I try to start the Workbench itself the splash screen
appears and then nothing else happens. Eventually (after about 15
minutes) the splash screen will disappear, but the DWB never starts
despite leaving it overnight.
I see the processes using ps (both eclipse and java).
