    Amazing lens! Why go out and buy a book when we can read your lens. Just amazing!

    Great lens! Whish I had guides like this when I first started with linux, I had to install using a gazillion floppy disks at those times.

    Still have Windows XP but have just installed Mandriva 2011 on a spare machine. Am impressed but a huge learning curve. Nice lense that I will visit again.

    This is very useful info for beginners. If you have the chance check out my Mabuntu Linux site

    Great lens! I've been using linux for almost 10 years and I think parts of this were the best explanation I've seen of what does what.
    It's a shame that squidoo doesn't let you change fonts so you could set the commands in a different font - maybe italicising them would make things clearer?

    Thank you. Thats a great idea with the changing of fonts or italicising them.

    A pretty comprehensive beginners guide, and I noted a hat tipped towards vi too! Have you read any Eric S Raymond?
  • BookNow Feb 16, 2011 @ 3:46 pm | delete
    Thank you! I hope that people enjoy the lens and learn some new things. Yeah, I use vi(m) a lot. Takes a while to get used to but after a while you can get so much done with it :) Haven't read Erics stuff yet...its still on my list.

    Have you tried Rhythmbox or Amarok? I think they handle Ipods and other mobile devices.
  • Joey_G Dec 4, 2008 @ 10:20 pm | delete
    Good lens for beginners - it does take a while for the XP user to understand " you control all of Linux and you tell it what to do. I do wish a GUI would be more user friendly. The only time people will really see Linux as viable is when it can auto handle Itunes and WMA files to their portable music players.

    You're right, I have fixed all the commands with wrong quotes.
  • carl Nov 29, 2008 @ 11:47 am | delete
    Many of the commands above have a single dash but need a double dash in them. for example, dpkg -set-selections should be dpkg --set-selections.

    Thanks for the information, this is really helpful.
