This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

I recently did the KDE upgrade. I did this upgrade through YaST and everything seemed to go fine. All my apps work and everything looks real nice. The problem I have had crop up is that I can't use the ctrl-alt-F7/F8 to switch from one session to the other. I can use the switch option and log in to the new session, but when I try to switch the screen goes black and the cursor just blinks in the upper left corner. When this happens the computer is frozen in this mode. The only option I have is a ctrl-alt-del to reboot. Any ideas?

Are you sure it is F7 F8. How many tty's does Suse use. Check your /etc/inittab and see what is in there. To see what is up try this. Hit alt-ctrl-F1 ( that session one ). Increment up from there and see what comes up.
That is one thing I forgot to mention. I can cntl-alt-F1 etc and works fine. I can't get back into a X session. I'm sure it's F7or F8. I used regularly before I did the KDE upgrade.
