Hello everyone,

I'm kinda new to linux. I've experimented in the past with redhat, then suse and now ubuntu, but they were more fleeting thoughts of geekiness. This time I'm hoping to stick with it and learn quite a bit more.

I just wanted to say hello.

Edgar

Welcome.
You'll find these forums on the whole a friendly place.

Feel free to ask questions, and, as your confidence using Ubuntu grows, to answer other people's questions. We're a community with a wide range of experience on a wide range of equipment, so, between us all, we should be able to come up with an answer - sooner or later, preferably sooner - to any question you have.

Thanks for the welcome guys.

Where do you guys get your avatars? The other forums I frequent have an avatar gallery.

You can upload your own images in User CP. No animated gifs though.

Mine's a custom one (from the Ubuntu Counter Project, just remembered, I should update my profile there)

Welcome! Stick around and you'll probably learn quite a bit.
