Hi Les,
This is completely normal. It's impossible to soak in everything at one
time. Not only do you have a very solid operating system but a lot of
new applications. However, you will need to invest some time reading.
I would recommend getting yourself a couple of good books on Linux. The
books will show the file and command structure of the operating system.
Plus, if you get stuck, just post a question on this newsgroup.
You can check out the following books:
Linux in a Nutshell, from O'Reilley
Running Linux, from O'Reilley
Cheers!
