instance, I think I would progress. *What should I do? -- Steven I think Steven is neglecting basics. Many good tutorials & HOWTOs are easily found via Google. List members who have helped Steven most can best recommend URLs that best fit his needs. Suggestions? Meanwhile, consider a few little books: Learning the UNIX Operating System Jerry Peek et al. 4e 1998 O'Reilly 92 p. (Later editions seem bloated.) Linux Pocket Guide Daniel J. Barrett 2004 O'Reilly 191 p. (Slanted toward Fedora, but that can be ignored.) Linux Phrasebook Scott Granneman 2006 Sams 382 p. (Examples throughout.) Teach Yourself Linux Robert Billing 2004 McGraw-Hill 187 p. (Concise, practical, readable.) (The order of titles is random.) In this decade I've read each book four times -- in buses, barber shops, waiting rooms, bed. I'm still reading 'em, & I'm still learning. Roughly $10 each. For the most titles, lowest prices, & best service (in my experience) try: http://www.bookpool.com/ Wendell Cochran West Seattle -- kubuntu-users mailing list kubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-users |

Especially good for this task: http://www.google.com/linux I am using it all the time.

Probably Steven can't afford them - according to what he wrote some time ago he doesn't have enough cash. Therefore, here is one available for free from the Ubuntu repositories. Install the package "rutebook" and start reading at /usr/share/doc/rutebook/html/index.html with your favourite browser.

Actually makes the kubuntuforums quite pointless, sadly to say. Example: this week I installed a Linksys wireless printserver for a company who wants a 100 wireless system in a building but could find no w/less printer. Instructions all relating to Windows XP or earlier. Vista, Linux, Mac? Got it working for XP but have 3 linux users. Googled around, no good answers. Found a link on ubuntuforums.org telling me EXACTLY how to do and it was way easier than windows. Where I first have to attach printer via usb and install it, then put printer pack on wireless, install wireless server-driver and configure it to take over installed printer driver. Linux - go for ipp net printer in install, type correct url (ok not all that easy w/o help) and choose printer. Thats it. -- kubuntu-users mailing list kubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-users |
