Product Description

Practical Linux gears itself toward people who don’t want to be burdened with technobabble, but just want to use Linux just as they would any other operating system. Most books in this category concentrate mostly on the installation and configuration process, while neglecting content that helps you use Linux for daily tasks. This book covers all the bases, making use of a systematic approach, while providing numerous cross-references. Topics include working with the KDE and Gnome desktops, using the command line, getting help and maintaining your system, connecting to the Web, using browsers, setting up e-mail, setting up printers and adding peripherals, using graphics and multimedia tools, and networking.
