Well, I'm taking advantage of the condition that I'm a newbie
reporting my first encounter impressions of these pages... a side
effect is that i infact don't really know the answers to write a
patch... however i just wanted to capture the newbie bewilderment
points so you can make the docs more user friendly... better too
friendly than too unverbose.

for instance, today i tried to install openoffice.org, and there were
at least 5 places where things didnt make sense... but i just tried
this and that and didn't record those points... therefore the
providers probably wont know that newbies have problems there...
