Hi Chris,
Thanks so much!
I've just done a yum update and oh my God it's now working. *ggg*
Don't hope I did anything wrong here.
Best regards
Brian

I don't know if it'll help you with Linux, I only have a nice folder the
size of a house with three different versions of Linux still in their
images, but I do have a unix command summery, might help? Give me a shout
and I'll send it across. Also there is a site called techonthenet.com
which has a linux link on it.
Chris Norman.

Subject: New Linux user and several questions!
Dear list,
Ok finally I did it. Never thought I would. grin
I'm talking about making the decition to try Linux for good and for
worse.
More then 10 years ago I used dos allot and while studdying computer
science I played a bit with Unix.
But 10 years is very long time without touching such a complex system,
so almost all of the knoladge I had at that time has gone away.
With sighted help I installed a server installation yesterday based on
Fedora core 4.
The machine is an ordenary pc celeron 2.66 GHZ 512 megs of ram, and a
40
gig hard drive.
There is a c-media audio chip build in and the graphics card is a
Nvidia
tnt 2 I think.
The server is running fine and a good friend of mine is configuring
lots
of programs and services remotely.
Now on to the questions
How can I get into Linux?
Where do I start?
Shortly about my background. I'm a Microsoft certified systems engeneer
Internet specialist, so at least I have good knoladge about computers
in
generel, and windows stuff in particular.
I've heard that there are diferent options to choose from when deciding
wich speech system you want?
I can access the machine from other machines via secure crt and ssh,
but
is it possible to install some speech on the machine itself?
Well I'll not ask any more questions for now. I hope some of you more
experienced users will step in, and give me some information about how
to become a serious Linux user. Thanks in advance.
Best regards
Brian
