[TriLUG] No books for SuSE

[Mike Kelley]

Actually no.  I got my copy from a friend.   However, I did see a copy of
SuSE 8.0 personal edition today which seemed to have no manual whatsoever,
given the weight of the box, but thanks for passing that along, I'll check
out the Pro version as soon as I can.  Still, though, given the abundance of
information on RedHat, I'm surprised there isn't more available for SuSE.

no current books on SuSE.  I've even inquired about ordering one but there
isn't on available.  Everything is at least two years old.  I've been to
several bookstores and there is a fair selection of non-specific Linux books
and dozens for RedHat (Consequently I'm beginning to hate RedHat.) but
nothing for SuSE.  What's the problem?  I really like the OS and can't
understand why there is virtually no printed information out there.  I
finally bought a couple of non-specific books and one RedHat manual but had
to post a message here just to find out why I don't have a specific file or
how the boot process works.  Any thoughts on the matter?
