Fine with me Tongue

LFS isn't supposed to be useable. You're supposed to make something useable with it Tongue It's hard because it has to be to be called "From Scratch"

So looks like I'm the only Fedora user around here. Tongue

Fedora was the first Linux I had any experience with, but I adapted pretty well. I'd say it falls between Ubuntu/Mint and Arch in terms of user-friendliness: perhaps not as easy to get used to as Ubuntu or Mint, but not as hard to use as Arch.

It's a nice alternative to Debian-based systems: I personally think it's better than Debian-based systems, but that's just my opinion. I'd recommend looking into it though.

The userbars in my sig are links embedded links.

We can't get the OpenSuse to boot so Juju took over with Arch to solve things.

I just started running Linux Mint on one of my computers and it looks great. I could use some pointers on getting used to it though

I just want to know enough to get used to it and be able to use it.

My main question is.
How does the terminal work and what can it do?

If you're familiar with the Windows Command-line, the terminal is essentially a version of that on steroids. It allows you to use a more powerful scripting language and do pretty much everything on a system.

It works just like any other interpreter, except that the Bash interpreter happens to be close to the OS.

I would highly recommend either openoffice or koffice (preferably koffice) for microsoft office support. You should also ask Jonimus for help on setting up TiLP. You should get Wine and Mono for windows compatibility on most programs. Other then that I can't think of anything at the moment. You might like Docky though Smiley

I'd use Google Docs for online and OpenOffice for offline.

Most distros have now switched to LibreOffice Smiley

I use Wine for a well-known reverse-engineering tool, but not Mono for anything.
