I believe on olga.net they have a chord list. It's just a list of the names and the fingerings. Let me see if I can find it for you.

Right on man. but you can still play the root like xx0202 and xx0201.

D is "D, F# & A" and the 6th of D is B. so it's a D chord with a B in there too. you could play it like x20232.

Dm is "D, F & A" and the 6th is still the same B. so you could play DM6 like x20231 or xx3201 depending on whether you want that F doubled or the D doubled, and where you want that 6th to sound (in the chord or as the bass).

Here's what I'd do:

D6: xx0202
Dm6: xx0201
A: x02220
B7: x21202
E7sus4: 022230
E7: 022130

i've got a dumb question but i gotta ask... do you just remember for instance that the 6th of D is B? or do you have a whole bunch of scales up on your wall?
cause damn..

its really not that hard to remember that stuff if you apply it to the fretboard, especially since D is such a common chord/key
