  1. In GNU/Linux, this is called “root” rather than “Administrator”.
  2. This is openSUSE, a GNU/Linux distribution. This means that packages
    for things like OpenOffice.org are available. For information on how to
    upgrade, see http://en.opensuse.org/OpenOffice#Update_to_Latest_Version
    Yes, you need to be root to do that. You’re welcome back if you have
    more specific questions. Be sure to include messages and all
    information you may have.

Kind regards,
