New user to Suse 9.1 Personal.

Hi
Im new to using Suse 9.1, i have a few problems and help would be appreciated.

1. How do you write files from suse into windows.
2. I have a USB pen and I want to be able to use it in Suse, The pen is compatible with the linux kernel
3. I've been using xmms the winamp alternative, I was wondering how can you get it to enqueue by default.

Many Thanks

Hi Bigfootuk,

1. You must mount mount the windows share to a linux "folder"

2. You must mount the usb drive to a linux "folder"

3. In Gnome there you can change the default application by running
/usr/bin/gnome_default_application_properties

USB pen is plug & play for SuSE 9.1. Plug in the USB pen then you will see the window pop-up.
It's mounted as /media/usbxxx-xxx-xxx

> How do you write files from suse into windows?
Where is the Windows disk?
Network: need to install Samba or use FTP
local disk (dual boot):
NTFS: # mkdir -p /mnt/windows ;/mount -t ntfs /<windows partition> /mnt/windows
FAT32: # mkdir -p /mnt/windows; mount -t vfat /<windows partition> /mnt/windows

Wesly
