Hi! if anyone is interested, i've made a page which should contain applications, scripts and user submitted information about how linux works on different laptops, or tricks to get a hardware working right on desktops.

if anyone is interested, i'm waiting you here: http://bestoflinux.co.nr/

for the moment, i'm working very hard at this, and some sections are not available for the moment, but i hope that i go on line with all at the end of this week..

for suggestions, don't hesitate to reply :)

thank you so much..i will add these as soon as i can.
or maybe you want to add some other things by yourself?
to add something you need to register and... you'll see the "button" :))
anyway, thank you, i'll add these, and if anyone has an application to share, just add it

thank you very very much.
i have a question... have anyone seen that it's possible to register, and insert by yourself the applications?
i've wanted to create something...huge... and i can't do this if i enter all the applications by myself....
anyway, thanks for the applications, i'll insert them :d

I'd do it myself but I'm too lazy right now :) Maybe for the next batch (I've got more of those).

why not have it as a wiki? that way you'd save yourself the effort of typing all those.
