Maybe it's justme. I went in and tried to edit the files, and now I can't save
them. It's so frustrating, I feel like I'm in first grade all over again. I
went into the vim editor in terminal, typed i to edit the file, and I was able
to type my changes, but then when I typed :e to exit and save, it won't ever
save. I tried using other editors, and keep getting permission errors.
Honestly, I'm trying to do this on my own with the help of google, and the docs
from opensuse, but I'm just over my head. It shouldn't be that hard to perm set
the path. I know I'm going to have that ahha moment when it all clicks, and I
hope it's soon. LOL.. Thanks for all your help, you know I appreciate it.
