    Re: Where Can I Find The Best Ubuntu Book To Learn From?

    Just finished reading Ubuntu Unleashed. I LEARNED A LOT! And Implemented 30+ IDEAS including: Squid, Samba, NFS, FTP, XServer, 3D cards, Log Messages, Backing Up, SSH, and the list goes on...
    It's OK, everything we know will become obsolete at some time.

    the best book for Ubuntu I have found is the manual interface
    Code:
    man <module>
    as anything and everything can change from one release to another and everything does change when you configure Ubuntu to your liking

    Since you want the best of everything, I suspect you'll never find it. Keep looking though.

    That's a good point. I'll keep a mental note of it.

    Linux for dummies is a very good descriptive book on gnome and kde desktops

    between Ubuntu Hacks and Ubuntu Unleashed, and Official Ubuntu Book, which would you all recommend? (downloaded the free .pdf pocket guide)

    ETA: something that focuses a bit on the terminal, i hope.

    also, any thoughts on Running Linux by Matt Welsh? I've read that it does a thorough job of explaining the OS
