Hello, Philipp

I am by no means an expert, but in my personal experience,
there are usually several ways to get your questions answered.

1. The 'man' command. It provides some basic but useful instructions
   about the command you are using. You may have already known
   this. :)

2. Major distribution's forum. Fedora and Ubuntu's forums might be a
   good start.

3. Go to specific mailing list regarding to your software if you have a
   much detailed description about your questions. Information like
   the version of kernel, software, and hardware you are currently using.

As an addition, you may want to take a look at following article for it may
provide you some 'wisdom' on how to make a proper question in
Linux commuties.
