After finding that with a powerful magnifying glass I could actually read the print, the first thing to try is to access the files in a FAT32 partition using the included Desktop CD, however:
The disk included with the book does not seem to match the text!. See page 37, where we are instructed to use System>Administration>Disks. Unfortunately the version of Desktop Ubuntu provided does not have a Disks menu item under Administration, so we can never get to a Disks Manager screen like Figure 2.13 on page 38!
Perhaps it would actually work if one were to install Ubuntu on the HD, but I’m not likely to do that until I see that the Desktop Version works properly.
Rating: 1 / 5
It seems to be a trend with some computer books to use grey instead of black ink and to print in thin small type. I don’t know if this is confined to one publisher.
This is very apparent in a bookstore. I don’t know if one can find this kind of problem “looking inside” the book at Amazon.
If I can’t see it I can’t read it.
Thus 1 star and I am not going to purchase it.
Authors should pay more attention to what happens to their book after they turn in the manuscript.
Rating: 1 / 5
A book for newbs and goes into great depths on all newbish things. Not bad, but just for people that want to learn the desktop gui, apps, included programs, etc. . Does not go into to much techie details and it follows the K.I.S.S protocol (Keep it simple stupid)
Rating: 3 / 5
The book is oriented to desktop users but have also tips for administrators. You can use ubuntu in a desktop pretty well with this book as it explains a lot of concepts clearly and has a lot of references to more information resources.
Rating: 4 / 5
This book served as a one-stop resource to become part of the Linux culture. It is able to achieve this by combining breadth and depth coverage. Whether you are starting to learn Linux/Ubuntu for the first time, or has been using it but want a more streamlined approach, this is the book.
The author’s style is riveting and I was able to read most of the book in two weeks. This is not the first Linux bible book I’ve tried, but this is the ONLY one that fulfills its promise.
I recommend it to anyone with no reservations.
