I completely agree. There are not many online forums for YDL - I believe this mailing list and the YDL board http://www.yellowdog-board.com/ are the only two specific ones. I am new to YDL too myself. I suspect not many people use it very much these days if traffic in these lists or the YDL board is anything to go by, at least relative to the traffic you can see on the ubuntu boards. As much as I hate saying this, you may want to check out Ubuntu as an alternative for a beginner for the following reason - there appear to be more distro specific 'current' books on the shelves of local bookshops, and at a brief glance, their forums appear to be more active. No doubt some questions and issues you will have will be ps3 specific but they have a forum for that too. People say ubuntu gnome or kde (kubuntu) is a big of a memory hog so some say xubuntu (xfce desktop) is possibly the best variant to install on the ps3. Your mileage may vary, I chose YDL and have stuck with it for a number of reasons namely the reputation and I have not ever tried an rpm distro before. By the way, you may find that some advice or tips for Red hat Enterprise Linux / CentOS 5.2 may apply to YDL too (big 'may' there) as I believe that's the base source YDL is compiled from. Cheers, happy Christmas.
