hi, im new to open suse, just finished installing 12.3 kde and now updating as im writing this post, but is there some things i have to do after install, like a to do list after installing suse?
my second question is is there a printable manual for terminal commands? since im only used to apt-get on kubuntu, but moving away from anything ubuntu based.
my third question is can i upgrade from one release to the next without reinstalling from scrath?
thx

Not really, unless you want to change things.

Mmm… if you mean CLI commands, there are many books, but I don’t know
which to recommend.
You might have a look at doc.opensuse.org, there are some online books.
You can download and print the PDF if you wish.

“zypper” would be the equivalent. Or YaST, a setup manager for
everything, including what zypper does, with menus.
