I am a bit confused,
you are posting to the linux documentation project.
Documentation like HOWTO's are handled here.
perhaps you should post to ####@####.#### at least the
should have a clue what you are talking about.
if you think that is a problem with your SUSE setup please use the
bugzilla from opensuse.com. normaly you get a fast reply if you specify
your problem propperly.
hope that helps,
walter
