Form my point of view it is just annoying (on the desktop). If the
network is SUCH a security risk, why even install drivers for the lan
card ? 
I find it extremely annoying to run after more-or-less undocumented
changes in new versions of distributions. This is not only true for
suse, but for all of them. (However, suse is the undisputed world
champion in this discipline).

Well, the "correct way" to me is anything that works at all. I needed a
working tcp-X11 on my workstation anyway, so i was going this route.
