Hi everybody, I'm currently doing some promotion for captorials.com in the community. I'd like to make some captorials for different 'starter-friendly' distros and since you all are involved with SuSe, I'd like to ask you if you have some written tutorials or howtos laying around that you would like to see 'videotized'. Now, please don't send me hundreds of files, but _some_ nice and important examples that are meaningful to newbies or regular users. This way, I can do something meaningful for the community, and in the mean time, create some momentum around captorials.com and ScreenKast. It can also function as an example of what's possible with videotutorials. Note that making your own videos is of course also possible. Please don't look upon this message as spam, I'm just looking for some interested individuals that are involved with SuSe one way or another. Thanks, Bram PS: if you know other interesting people (perhaps involved with other distros), please let me know or let them know.

Suse was my first distro and quite a bear to install back in the days of 7.0 but once up it was nice and lacked only a few things long ago added. I am not sure you want a newbie distro or one for oldware (SuSE). For Newbies Knoppix has a nice book from OReilly.com or for those going cheap there is Umbutu and a few other live CD. If your talking about total clods who have problems finding the power switch on a windows box then plan on doing the install for them of helping them to find the local *nix group to do the install for them. In that case a full distro like CentOS, MePis, Yopper, or Suse. If the newbie is going that rout best they do as I did attend meetings regular until you can see enough distros working and find one which suites your fancy there are over 300 now. CWSIV
