I've found the "Running Linux" by Matt Welsh is an excellent book to both
learn linux with, and to use as a reference when the usual problems arise.

I would recommend "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Linux" -- I don't have a
ISBN or anything, but it's a very well-written book.� Unfortunately, it
concentrates on the Caldera distribution, but there are very few differences
between that and Mandrake; and focuses mainly on KDE and basic commandline
functions.

It is part of the "Complete Idiots" series (a la '... for Dummies').� Even
comes with StarOffice (as well as Caldera OpenLinux 1.3, which you can
forget about)� <g>

What book does everybody recommend for running Red Hat/Mandrake, that also
is more general to Linux as a whole.� I just started learning this, and I
need to find a good book.
