Nevertheless, I think I see your point. You would like to have something
like a "SUSE Linux cookbook" added to the documentation, correct?

Actually what I want is difficult to achieve. I want:

1) documentation available offline corresponding to the product. (eg
SUSE Linux 10.2 - and generic Linux - and Generic UNIX - all what is
relevant)

2) most parts of it installed by default.

3) documentation easy to find (currently much documentation is hard to
find - and often requires internet connection)

4) documentation devision - for different skill levels of users - that
is for total noobs to computers tutorials, for Windows power-users,
for newbie admins, for newbie programmers and for advanced
programmers.

*Of course, the programmer's docs doesn't need to be installed by default.

In addition to skill levels ducumentation should be searchable (like
google) should be devided by topics - and - standards. - like ext3
specification - or POSIX specs or RPM specs - whatever.

5) I think it is a good idea to include third party docs to SUSE Linux
- if they are useful for SUSE users of course. Like "Maximum RPM"
open-sourced book by RedHat or TLDP docs.

SUSE does this already. (few books included, but hard to find - next
to impossible unless you know the RPM's name)

6) documentation must be fast.

Here SUSE Linux lacks badly - the KDE docs indexing takes a lot of
time. (minutes or hours) a possible solution is to provide preindexed
database for most docs.

7) multilingual docs for basic topis only - as advanced users supposed
to know English.

================================
I see the above as ideal that is hard to reach. But I would try.
