Hi George,

Fo some reason SuSE seems always to have bugs relating to the GC docs.  
Thought that it had been fixed years ago, I'll have to search the list 
archives for the solution presented a few years ago (openSuSE 10.0?)

in the meantime, try the following command in a terminal window:

yelp /usr/share/gnome/help/gnucash/C/gnucash-guide.xml

(you may have to use YaST to install the yelp package - I did)

HTH,
Maf.
