Hi,
Here are some links that will help you get started

<http://www.linuxnovice.org/>
<http://www.justlinux.com/>

and SUSE10.1 itself has a good set of user manuals to help you configure 
and get started, if you are using KDE click on the lifebelt icon which 
should be in the main task bar.

Best of luck
