I first used linux which was RH9 I think. What I did was the web browser which was Navigator if I'm not wrong. I then search through all the links to try and find out what I could and couldn't do and how I was supposed to do things. I suppose the 'best' example would have to be the http://ubuntuguide.org I think thats the link. It basically explains everything including the propietary stuff. The equivalent I've used at times has been fedorafaq which was great but didn't imo go far enough. I suppose a happy medium between the two as a link possibly. Or maybe the standard home should have a help section then from there to a docs section explaning. I know a lot of people who still don't know about SElinux because they don't know where to look. Granted fedoraforum for example has helped with that however solving it in the first place by creating that link from the front webpage. Another great doc section I suppose could be the gentoo docs which although its a 'hard' way of going for a newbie who has very little idea of compiling it steps you through everything which really was helpful for me for example when I first tried it. Stupid me forgot to enable the swap space :( Should we look at all examples of put all examples down and start creating a 'template' of how to lay it out or has that already been done. If so can someone point me in the right direction please. Just putting suggestions forward and I suppose I'm trying to 'picture' how it would look. Possibly start on a table of contents or has that been progressed on. > On Fri, 2005-07-22 at 08:46 +0800, Marc Wiriadisastra wrote: >> Is this suggestions to be done straight away as in announcing it or are >> we >> planning on making it big enough to hit people over the head with in >> FC5? > - Ignored: > Both? > >> The only thing I can suggest is adding it to the front page of Firefox >> when you start it up after the install.
