From Windows to a Debian GNU/Linux desktop, sans the geekness
The Original - since June 2006 - Run Debian GNU/Linux and be Happy.

Isn't about time we dismissed popular culture altogether anyway? I mean, really -- look at what's it's done to our species: fad ish, quick, lack of common knowledge, forgetting the past, escapism, promoting horrible human values.

I say let it go. Then let the media companies die. Then, let's start being human again. Don't fret, there will always be someone playing a guitar somewhere - when we decide to regulate that, we are lost.

What's Root?
Root is the super-ultra-mega. All system commands on a Linux box need to be done as root. This means installing software and changing files not in your /home directory, etc. In your terminal, if you're logged in already become root by typing su at your $ prompt, then the root password. Log in the system directly as root from a terminal, but not the graphical login. # shows root.

dediantutorials.org is ad-free
debiantutorials.org has always been and will always remain ad-free I make no unrealistic demands that you "owe me for my time and bandwidth" in order to use my site. I detest all those scumbags out there that think that they are owed something for putting a web site up. I do debiantutorials.org because I love it. You owe me nothing.

If you can walk and chew gum at the same time, you can run Linux

I was pretty mad when I made this category, as I always am when I read the news links in it. I don't have a lot of nice things to say so I'll keep my mouth shut.

Times like these lend credence to heaven and hell and I begin to hope for them.

Environmental Catastrophy: Dubya's Cabinet (1)
Random Stuff Linux-centric (3)
There are other outlets on the web and many other sources that don't fit into straight Debian, or straight Linux news.
This category of news feeds will no doubt include the gammit of operating system and computing news.
Debian News (5)
After using Debian for a while you will probably agree that you have found your favorite Operating System.
Stay abreast of the latest news and developments here, or, make sure that you know about any security news.
Security fixes in Linux are not made on a regular release schedule like Microsoft. Consequently, Linux gets security updates almost immediately. Example, yesterday I received news that there was a remote DOS vulnerability found in SpamAssassin, today, without waiting for an exploit, the vulnerability has been fixed.
