Welcome Les,
I gather you're new to Linux also (?) There's a lot of information
on you main menu under Documentation. If you paste
file:/usr/share/doc/rute-0.3.0/rute.pdf into the Location line in
Konqueror you'll have a 194 page general tutorial to read on using
Linux. http://mandrakeuser.org/ is a great site for Mandrake
tutorials, tips & tricks, trouble shooting, etc.
http://jgo.local.net/LinuxGuide/ and http://www.linuxnewbie.org/
are other good sites. If you do a Google search
( http://www.google.com/ ) and use 'linux' and any other appropriate
keyword to your query, it'll turn up a ton of links. If you still have
a question(s), you should try searching the mailing list archives (both
newbie and expert) first. They're your best chance and you'll get
quicker answers. The archives are at
http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/flists.php3
Linux' best documentation is online. It's less dated than books and
other print docs. Still, there's been such substantial changes in
Linux, most all distros latetly, and you should keep that in mind if
the information you find "just doesn't seem to fit". So, search the
archives, and if you still have a question, fire away. It's best to
try to keep each post to one question.
