Problem 3: It depends on what/how it broke. The only problem I had was when I downloaded the YOU updates for SUSE and it updated the Kernel. In doing so, it bumped my ndiswrapper install for my belkin USB NIC I was using to access the internet.
Thankfully, I kept all of the install instructions I got online and simply reinstalled it..
As to "who does he call?" there are number of online resources he can used to get these questions answered by fellow users.
Sure the command line is scary to a lot of new users. It's even hard for those familiar with Windows and DOS, but there are some resources online that are very well written step-by-steps for common issues. The Noob to Geek gap is closing every year. I moved to Gnome as a result of that kernel problem and found that i was more solid and easier to use for me. (no flames, this is just my preference...)
