My Collection of Knowledge

[ac_dispatcher]

I spent some time with this and posted it on the LinuxQuestions.org site. Thought it might be worth posting here too.

 

For the record I am no guru of any sort. I consider myself just an average linux user. There seems to be alot of new Mandrake Linux people here so I thought I would share some of my more helpfull Links to everyone:

 

First a must read for all (I am reminded to reread it at times too )

and the must have link

Want more knowledge? Join a " LUG " - that's a Linux User Group. There is bound to be one somewhere near you:

I have made the mistake of using a forum as my first stop for knowledge. Only to be reminded that a simple goolgle check could have found the answer. For instance Iwas trying to find out how to get acpi working in Mandrake 9.2. So I asked on a forum how to get it working. Well I felt stupid when the answer was right on the Mandrkae web site: http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/errata.php3#nolapic

 

Of course none of these sites are mine. Might be nice to drop a email there way saying thanks for a good site.

 

This post is bound to get some good Links. Cant wait to see them

[aRTee]

Hey, cool list and thanks for starting on Mdk specific things with my site... *grin*

 

I would like to urge people to add to the twiki (as soon as I have more time I will add my stuff there too), especially 'how to' things. No reason to have things only at the tips and tricks section here... :)

[ac_dispatcher]

Thanks aRTee. Your site is a great Mandrake must

 

I must admit I posted this to get some good sites from other users out there. Does anyone have good Linux sites they use daily not listed here?

[Darkelve]

Oo, I just found one:

The essential guide.

 

I wish I knew of this when i started with linux!!
