Getting Help With SUSE Linux
This article explains in detail how to utilize the extensive Help resources found in SUSE Linux, as well as how to use many standard commands. It is a actually a book chapter, entitled "Getting Help" from a new book called Linux Starter Kit: Everything you need to start using Linux today.. The book's author is Emmett Dulaney; its publisher is Sams Publishing. It consists of a full DVD version of SUSE Linux 10.1 and a Quick Start guide. The Linux Starter Kit is available at booksellers now.
Those who are new to the operating system often complain of the legions of commands that exist and how you must know when to use this one or that one and what options/parameters to use with it. The truth of the matter is that it is extremely rare to find a utility or feature that is not well documented in at least one location.
SUSE Linux has added to the inherent robustness of the help system by adding the SUSE Help Center directly to the KDE and GNOME desktop panels. Simply click on the icon of the lizard with a life preserver around it, and the Help Center opens.
