Answer» OK.. PLZ .. someone has to guide me step by step towards learning linux... The BEST way that I've found to learn is just to jump right into it. Start doing things. If/when you get stuck, research it, go through forums until you figure it out. Just keep messing around, tweaking, and breaking things and you'll get the hang of things very soon. The best way to learn anything is to just do it. Get in and get your hands dirty. My $0.02...Ok.. i was just askin.. Haha. Sorry if I seemed a little blunt there. Some good sites to check out if you have any QUESTIONS are: www.linuxquestions.org www.ubuntuforums.org Both sites have very knowledgeable people who are very nice and will help you with whatever troubles you may be having. Even if you do not choose Ubuntu for your distro, you can still learn a lot from reading through those forums.I got a couple pointers. Take a good, long, hard look at each of your config files (xorg.conf, httpd.conf, php.conf, smb.conf, etc.). Figure out what each line does in each of them. http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-config.html - First result after a Yahoo! search for linux conf files. (I might look at it a little more myself) Also, learn a programming language (or several). Perl is supposed to be a good beginner's language. even i looked thru the config files from the same website... i was just goin thru them.... Any other files i shud look out for... <>Quote from: naren_arsenal on July 06, 2007, 05:26:04 AM <<contrex u r doin it again doug!!!u pissin me off>> Why? I gave you good, truthful advice. If you can't handle it, that's your problem, not mine. ok..whatever.. if i had the money and time..i cud have joined a course.. if i was goin for a linux course i cudnt be askin these silly questions on this forum....i cud have been a pro...and giving advise to people like u..time to unsubscribe - bye. i dont understand.. r u telling me to unsubscribe or r u goin to unsubscribe....i think he means there's a misunderstanding in this whole situation and you both need to just chill, despite what your views of it are. remember people have different reactions to different statements. have you googled for linux help? when i was first learning (before i could afford or had the time for a course aswell), i used google, and it actually helped me a lot. there are some thoughtful people out there who make sites with help just like what you want and they do it all for nothing, i'm sure you wouldn't want that to go to waste would you?yeah.. and i found this site in google when i looked for linux learnin lol that's a sorta weird coincidence well i remember there was one really good site when i started but i don't remember what it is.. if i find it, i'll post back with the address, how's that? ok...give the links |
