Hi, everyone, Now that I have clear picture of the procsedure let me share it with you. I am planning to have the following sections in the FAQ (changeable) 1. Apache 2. Kernel 3. Sound 4. System Admin (adding users, changing shells, one-liners, rpm, tar etc.) 5. Samba 6. CDwriter 7. Nvidia 8. X problems 9. PPP/ADSL/DHCP 10. Networking problems (routing eth config ) 11. KDE 12. Installation Thanks to Jon Clausen I have now 20.000 emails to work with while new ones are coming in :-( So I need help if this FAQ is going to come to a usefull reference source. So far I have noticed 2 people offering help (excluding Jon who has done a very good jub in handing me the mails with sorted topics ). Basicly I need help in monitoring threads in the above topics and producing plain text with the question and solution. Consequently it would be easier to produce the FAQ. The plain text files can be sent weekly resulting an updated FAQ weekly base. I am sure we have at least 12 people (more is welcomed) who can give a hand Thanks in advance -- Togan Muftuoglu

And me... Apache, maybe Samba. Would you be interested if I provided hosting
for something like Faq-O-Matic?

Actually Chris (ckm) mentioned it. IMHO you end up with people filling information. On the other hand I think although the current method takes mre time the information is already here and people know what worked what not. If only people when able to solve their problems could post here are the steps that helped me to solved the problem and then 1. 2. 3. ....... we already have the material to go to FAQ. -- Togan Muftuoglu

I am planning to have the following sections in the FAQ (changeable)
I highly recommend changing some of these as they are too specific (some of them can be construed as flamebait)...
1. Apache
1. Web Servers 1.1 Apache 1.2 Zope 1.3 Others
5. Samba
5. Network File Systems 5.1 NFS 5.2 Samba 5.3 Others
7. Nvidia
7. Video Hardware 7.1 X 7.2 Framebuffer
8. X problems
8. X Window System 8.1 Networking 8.2 Input Devices
11. KDE
Man, are you *trying* to start a flame war :-)* I'll do this alphabetically to remove bias... 11. GUIs 11.1 Desktops 11.1.1 GNOME 11.1.2 KDE 11.1.3 XFCE 11.2 Window Managers 11.2.1 AfterStep 11.2.2 BlackBox ... and so on...
12. Installation
A couple of other recommended sections: - Security!!!! - Software - Dealing with RPMs - Where to find good SuSE RPMs - Basic - Advanced - Dealing with tarballs I will, of course, help out some, but from home instead of work. I'll happily handle something nobody else wants to do if I have enough experience in it, but I prefer my recommended 'Software' section. -- James Oakley Engineering - SolutionInc Ltd. joakley@solutioninc.com http://www.solutioninc.com
yep... this is a good idea... Also I don't know if could be implanted a mailing list for people that want to help... and a way to reserve a topic to avoid two persons start working on the same topic... or having persons that want to help in a contact list that allow us to communicate with other co-workers on this thing. bye --ed

Would this be an appropriate situation to use a wiki?

Alas, I haven't added much lately. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This was what I was trying to say with FAQ-MATIC you have to fill in information. On the other hand with the mail list we have the information all left to do is put in a better format. SO to me wiki is not apropriate also.

I think that each entry in the FAQ should be associated with the version of SuSE it refers. There are many many differences just between 7.2 and 7.3... Otherwise, go for it! David Garnier
