I am UNME new to this community which I found while searching answer
to my problems(vil talk bit later).
I am engineering student from reputed college in India(i wonder why it is so famous -----y i used to spend so many hours just to b here)
Recently our college shifted from window OS to Linux OS they say it is more
beneficial to students -------till now I was having a feel they were just giving excuse as they cannot pay for proprietry soft-wares
but when i went thru this site I am seeing many happy users
Hey Is Linux really great..?
Next day I went to cannaught place (centre point of our capital Delhi)
and bought few linux books and learntto install RED HAT 9.0-its easy graphicaly
But now my prob starts :
*I have DSL 502T router works nicely with windowsXP(i have drivers)
but not with linux(I could'nt find drivers)--how to connect to inter
net
* what are great sources to learn linux
*How easy was it to find window applications now '.exe' donot go with linux
I know a bit of networking on linux dns,dnhcp....................
I know wine runs .exe but where can I find good software written for linux
