Linux frequently asked questions for newbies

This was a great read that answered many questions, that a New LInux User and possibly a New Puppy Linux user might ask!

Awesome Resource Page!
What a Great Resource Page! I somehow missed this? This needs to be in Bold or some color with Flashing lights that says "Go Here First!" LOL I am new to Puppy and Linux for the most part and could of really used this a few days ago LOL. Anyway Great Job on compiling this together and will try to point others to it as much as I can.
Thank You Flash!

P.S. I just saw that this was the TOP Post in the "Beginners Start Here" Section! AAAAAARgh! What else can be done besides have it reach out of the screen and shake you? Is there scripting for that in SeaMonkey?

Thanks man. Your work creating this page is well appreciated.... especially by those of who are seriously senior with no teen agers around the house to answer computer questions yet are aware enough to dare to abandon Windows.

Great idea - How about adding "How to add drivers/packages"
For my $.02, I think this index is a great idea - thanks!
If I can suggest, a pointer to a tutorial or information on how to add existing precompiled driver packages to Puppy so that they appear in the Network Connect / Interface Configuration tools/GUI would be _very_ helpful.
Background: I'm working with a few Dell laptops of recent vintage (mostly Latitude e6400s), and finding that the drivers included in the base Puppy 5.0.1 (and Ubuntu) distros - especially the wireless drivers - don't work with these machines.
I've done a bit of searching (both here and elsewhere) and I have found precompiled drivers which reportedly should work, however have not yet found info on how to add them so that the Connect tools can find them.
I have started a thread asking for help with this subject here: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=56290.
If I can suggest, a pointer to the resources identified in answer(s) to that thread (and/or other resources on this topic) would be a very helpful addition to this index.

where is the actual list or index of resources
Hi
this thread seems to be very old now.
where is the actual list or index of resources being official agreed or encouraged bei 'Puppy linux' to be found?
are puppy wikis yet used?
how happens the 'management with system' of all the informations concerning the divers versions of puppy, quirky and fatdog64?
bye

Re: where is the actual list or index of resources
Indeed it is. I have explained several times that it was an experiment. In my own mind, I proved my point Unfortunately, the forum software makes it very difficult to maintain such a long post, and that is why I stopped trying.oui wrote:Hi

As long as I'm working my way through this, is there a glossary or dictionary somewhere?

Not only does it make essential posts (and other sources) easier to find...like werwinn said, there are many tutorials there I want to go through for the sake of learning before I need to know!
Puppy Distro: [url=http://openlab.jp/puppylinux/download/quickset_puppy/]pup-431JPqs3 "Quickset Puppy Linux (Japanese/English bilingual)"[/url]
