<snip> Hi and thanks Joe. You give me new hope.
Another doubt I had was as to whether this list was also for people using opensuse commercially. Maybe I'm breaking the law making money indirectly from opensuse. I don't mind paying for support but the advice here is all I need.

Love and kisses from Lynn.
Ok Lynn, You've managed to hit my hot button. This is exactly what is wrong, and I mean what is REALLY WRONG with *US* now days.
What a world Microsoft has created! It makes honest people *think* they are thieves!!!!
Lynn, STOP feeling guilty about USING Linux and certainly stop feeling guilty about asking for help, whether or not you eventually make a profit from the information is irrelevant.
I felt guilty before because another poster told me that I ought to know about linux permissions. In fact I did but needed help with them as a beginner. That's why I thought I was wasting list members time. It seemed to be a list just for experts. I take your point about microsoft and the way they made me feel when I stopped paying for their support and using their products. They send reminders. What is not clear for me and microsoft users in general is the issue of me using opensuse as against the Novell equivalent in a commercial environment. Your post encourages me in that I have the freedom to use opensuse as and how I wish. Commercially, as a hobby or just for playing games. is that what you are really saying? Anyway, thanks again and thanks to everyone accepting a total beginner in their list. I'm now going to ask another impossible question in another thread. Here's a preview: Where is /srv/www/htdocs in xp? Un saludo, Lynn. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
