I found it by clicking on the contents tab, then packages/programs, then /usr/share/doc/packages, then XF86.

Interesting, I wonder what Suse version you are using? I have 7.1

For some reason, the html pages for XF86 are located at file:/usr/share/doc/susehilf/XFree86

which has no apparent link from the main Suse help-center

Try entering this in Konqueror or Netscape: "http://localhost:80". For me, this brings up the help system at http://localhost:80/sdb/en/html/index.html.

From there, I chose "List of Articles" -- XFree stuff at the bottom.

How on earth did you discover that magical incantation?

I read somewhere on this list or maybe on the apache site, to review /etc/httpd/httpd.conf. Somewhere in there it said it would "Listen 80". Since I already knew that webmin listened to port 10000 and cups admin listens to 631, I thought I would try localhost:80 and up popped the SuSE help stuff. Just luck I guess.

Oh, I forgot to add that I downloaded and installed the sdb update from the ftp site. It even has current stuff from 7.1 (I only have 6.4 installed, with many additions from 7.0).
