hello every1, i have been a newbee in linux & also on this grp, i c lot of events and meetings being organised, but from a newbeis point of view i would like to suggest u ppl to keep an seminar or a small workshop abt GNU/Linux....especially abt switching onto "Debian" from other linux distribution i mean the installation GUI of other distributions like RH & Mandrake r very user friendly, but thats not the case with debian, and especially for a newbee its very difficult. There are lot of guys out there want to learn debian, unfortunately today in all classes they teach RH, its like "Linux = RH", moreover there r very few books or almost 'none' available in book stalls regarding debian, and its not possible for all ppl to just log onto net and read ebooks. So i strongly feel that there shd be some event organised abt starting/learning debian.....and other such isuues which could be difficult for a newbee to configure on debian..I know that "Knoppix" could be a nice solution for this but still lets try to learn the typical debian way....
Pls send ur suggestions abt this.... Thanku Anil M. Kulkarni -- http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
