Everyone starts somewhere. A good place for testing is the opensuse-factory list. Download and install the testing versions(just remember that they aren't production ready). They usually add delta isos so you don't have to download the whole thing each time as the testing goes on.
Welcome aboard.
That's straight in the fire :-D
Clark, don't forget asbestos suit when you install Factory. Right now it is in pretty volatile state. You should use spare machine, not the main one.
If you are not that adventurous KDE4 is better place, but as mentioned in another post, to keep problems from you main desktop, create new user and use that one for KDE4 only, and start with applications that you know the best. That means you need main desktop to communicate. I still use KDE3, most of the time.
Seriously, what you can do depends on your experience. "Rather new" is open to interpretations: new to computers, Linux, openSUSE, KDE4, or software testing.
-- Regards, Rajko http://en.opensuse.org/Portal needs helpful hands. Software testing :) I am pretty good at disaster recovery! I am returning to Linux after losing a few years in gaming which all run in windows. I used KDE and SuSe years ago but alot has changed! I have 3 computers I can work with. I will make sure to do backups. I am learning Java right now, any suggestions for another language? I am an extremely fast learner so I don't mind being thrown into fires :) Thanks, Scarlett
