I'm seriously having a hard time understanding your English.  Webmin.com is a 
Linux application.  It installs very easily on Red Hat.  Download the .rpm 
file, and run: rpm -ivh webmin-version.arch.rpm.   (replace "version" and 
"arch" with the actual terms from the file you downloaded).

I don't understand what you mean by "get INTO linux beyond gnome".  What is 
your goal?  How can we help you obtain your goal?  

What bugs are you talking about?  Where are you "filling in the search box"?

What "list" are you looking at?

If you don't know how to use Linux or how Linux works, why are you looking at 
bugs then?  Shouldn't you be concentrating on USING Linux rather than trying 
to read bug reports?

Perhaps you should invest in some Using Linux type books.  There are plenty 
out there.  You should also visit http://www.linuxnewbie.org.  You should 
probably learn to walk before you run headlong into Linux.
