The Official Red Hat Linux Getting Started Guide
By now, you should have read the Official Red Hat Linux Installation Guide and successfully installed Red Hat Linux. This manual is designed to help new and intermediate Linux users navigate and perform common tasks. Keep in mind that Linux looks, feels, and performs differently from other operating systems you may have used. Forget about the conventions of other operating systems and, with an open mind, approach Red Hat Linux as a new, interesting, and versatile alternative.
This manual is task-oriented. You will find useful tips, hints, warnings, and screen shots interspersed throughout. First, you will learn the basics of using Red Hat Linux, such as customizing a desktop, configuring a printer, and getting online. Once the basics are covered, the tasks covered in this manual become progressively more advanced.
Most users choose to work within either the GNOME or KDE graphical desktop environments (other desktop environments are also available). The Official Red Hat Linux Getting Started Guide focuses primarily on how to perform tasks in these two environments.
Topics discussed include:
• Using the graphical desktop environment
• Managing files and directories
• Working with documents
• Using the Web and email
• Upgrading applications
• Pointers to additional resources covering common questions and answers, computer basics, an explanation of Red Hat Linux system directories, and more.
After conquering the basics of your Red Hat Linux system, you may need information on more ad- vanced topics. You can find this information in the Official Red Hat Linux Customization Guide and the Official Red Hat Linux Reference Guide. HTML and PDF versions of the Official Red Hat Linux manuals are available on the Documentation CD and online at http://www.redhat.com/docs/
