The command question is actually covered in the list faq at http://home.nyc.rr.com/computertaijutsu/linfaq.html The faq is somewhat dated, but that question's answer is still correct. >From your menu choose terminal or konsole or xterm. (You should have at least one of those choices. I'm not sure how SuSE sets it up though.) You'll see something like [EMAIL PROTECTED] $ (It will be different, but basically, some sort of username, and possible the machine's name, ending with that $. That's the command line. From there, oddly enough, you type in commands. :) > > and > > how to install new programs (ex. mplayer) This varies between distributions, so someone who uses SuSE (which I haven't in years) will have to answer. -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6 Xander: Dorkhead?
