Hi everyone,

I’m a newbie when it comes to Apache, Ruby, Rails, and…well…Linux  
in general. At the moment I am running OpenSUSE 10.3. I have written a  
simple app and would like to deploy it to the OpenSUSE box. There seem  
to be oodles of guides and howtos out there, and following them always  
get me stumped at some point or other. Unfortunately I am not  
knowledgeable enough to get myself out of those pickles.

Is there anyone who has successfully deployed a Rails app to an  
OpenSUSE box? If so, is there a guide out there that will point me in  
the right direction? Sorry if it sounds vague but I’m getting somewhat  
frustrated.

Many thanks,  
Dany.
