1. Can someone tell me where to look to find some simple suse
tutorials (like, how do I get to the bash terminal and how do I invoke
a simple text editor). also...
On the kde desktop, click the bottom right menu go to Tools and then
click on Konsole Window. That opens a bash terminal for you ( assuming
you have bash as your shell in /etc/passwd)
No idea what you call a "siple text editor". To get vim, just type vi in
the terminal window. It is a command oriented editor. Or install and use
emacs. Or if you want a windows based one, install and use a whole
variety of editors-- nedit, pico, joe, kwrite, ....
2. I have downloaded java jdk for linux and I have a file on my
desktop called jdkblahblahblah.bin. How do I make this install? I
right clicked on the properties and made sure thay are all read and
write for everyone, and checked "Allow executing file as a program."
Now what? When I double click on this, nothing happens?
If you want to execute a program it also needs execute permission.
chmod a+x jdkblahblahblah.bin
Then you could double click, or you could from the terminal just type
../jdkblahblahblah.bin
3. I also downloaded Eclipsebalahbalh.tar.gz onto my desktop. When I
double click, I get the archive manager. I am going to extract
this....but I would like to know where, from you linux fellows, I
should typcially extract something like this to (it is the Eclipse
Java Editor)
Why not just get the already compiled version for your system?
Thanks so much! -Janna B.
