Introduction
Welcome to the place where we make learning Linux easy for everyone! We do this simply because we were n00bs at one time and the one problem we found was documentation and a structured environment. This in no way replaces reading about Linux to furthur understand it, our goal is to tackle the everyday problems associated with the use of Linux so your transition is easier whether you come from mac or windows..
The biggest problem that we are trying to address is the fact that documentation is usually cumbersome, incomplete and sometimes scattered. Follow the for your latest problems. Any feedback and help building the website is greatly appreciated. You can reach me at rob@ahsfl.net
To your Left are links to various components that you use daily, It would be cumbersome and un-organized for me to list all the material here all at once. Therefore These links to your left are for specific functions and programs.
Man Pages is exactly what it is...man pages. However these are different. They only include information that you as a new user needs and they are re-written so that you can understand them and how they work to your benefit. Contrary to all belief the "man" in man pages is nothing sexist at all...it stands for "Manual".
Linux Utilities is a place where you can see various programs and utilities at work and what they do. This is somewhat similar to man pages, however we go into more detail about other utilities that don't ship with general Linux installs. Things like, win32-codecs, flash, java etc etc
Upgrade and Install is a section that talks all about Upgrading and install software in your Linux Distrobution. As of this moment it is mostly centered around Mandriva and the use of urpm utilities and then progress into the older but just as powerful rpm command. Once we receive more help from other people we will have other systems on here as well. |
