<font face="Calibri">Hi All,<br>
<br>
After about a 10 year hiatus away from Linux I'm getting back into
it for daily use. I've been playing around with Ubuntu (and
Zorrin). When I was using Linux all those years ago it was mainly
as command line against a remote server (no desktop). But, now I
want to learn more about using Linux from a desktop user
perspective for daily use. I'm looking for how to do stuff as a
Linux user not so much administering the machine (although I
understand there's some cross over). My main goal is to learn how
to do tasks on the Linux desktop that I currently do on Windows as
a user and a developer (I'm a SQL Server DBA).<br>
<br>
Googling for "How to do X in Linux" returns so many hits it's
overwhelming (and time consuming). So, I thought I'd ask the group
to get the good stuff directly. :)<br>
<br>
</font><font face="Calibri"><font face="Calibri">What
recommendations can the group provide as far as learning
resources? Websites, newsletters, blogs, daily usage tips, etc?<br>
Where do you guys go for this type of information?<br>
<br>
Any thoughts would be appreciated. <br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Peter<br>
