Alam Al-Computer wa Al-Internet magazine published in
its August issue the full installation procedures of
SuSE Linux 6.1 plus some other utilities
that would help the user to do a clean and full installation. It
also offered free technical support for a week. The magazine also
anounced that anybody can pass by the office of the magazine to see
a full demonstration of Linux or help him/her personally in the
process of the installation on all saturdays in the month.

The article is 13 pages accompanied by images, tables, and
graphs. The full article is to be published soon (in Arabic) on the
magazine site. The magazine offers to lead a project to
Arabize Linux – that is: to make Linux support the Arabic
language – according to the developers needs – that is: GPL or
commercial.
