Does anyone know of a website with Linux tutorials?

Q. I'm looking for a website with simple tutorials for Xandros Linux. I've been looking around, but the only ones I've found are for Ubuntu.

I probably will change to Ubuntu or similar soon-ish, but in the meantime, I'd just like a webpage with simple instructions for simple tasks, like customizing my computer/ installing programs.

Thanks!

A. Here is a link to a few xandros tutorials. There are no manu around because xandros offers a fee for support service and tries to steer people to that. Many of the xandros tutorials here are for the eee pc which is a specialized "frugal" install to fit the eee pc. As you can see there are also tutorial for ubuntu on the right and many other distros.
Ubuntu has many more tutorials available.
have fun

Are there any good Linux tutorials on the Internet for beginners?

Q. I know there are a lot of different distributions, but is there a good beginners tutorial that teaches the basics of installing, configuring, and using Linux? Also a site that maybe goes into advanced topics after you have mastered the basics. Thanks for the help!

A. I am biased here but if you are going to install Linux I would suggest Suse 10 or Suse 10.1, it is very easy to install, you can accept the defaults without any problems, just follow the onscreen instructions, just boot from CD 1.
here is a web site that has info for suse 10
http://madpenguin.org/cms/html/47/5382.html

or you could look at the Novel site
http://www.novell.com/products/suselinux/ for download and info also you can ask them anything you need to know.

Here are some other linux sites.

this one looks quite good.

I need an expect script to telnet into a linux server that is menu driven. What are the proper commands?

Q. I want to ssh into multiple machines and choose option 1 from the menu driven linux interface.

A. That question makes absolutely no sense.
All linux distributions have ssh built -in, you can ssh from your command line or use a client like PuTTY.
If you are wondering how to manage multiple ssh sessions, check out screen here http://www.rackaid.com/resources/linux-tutorials/general-tutorials/using-screen/ .
If this does not answer your question please elaborate more as to what exactly you wish to accomplish.

How do i use a graphical file manager so i can use steam on "Linux"?

Q. So i wan to use steam on my school macbook that i can bring home. But to use programs like steam i have to use linux (works for minecraft). The only way I can use steam on linux is to open it with a graphical file manager (i downloaded muCommander). I don't know how to use one because i don't use linux. I'd love some help.

A. I'm not sure what you are trying to accomplish.

Steam can be installed to Windows or Mac.
http://store.steampowered.com/about/

File managers can be used for any operating system if one is written for it.

If you are using it on a Linux machine, it seems that they have it in limited beta. You may not be able to participate in this beta version.

Does every game on linux work on every distro?

Q. I wanted to try out Linux. I wanted to either get Fedora or Ubuntu (Mostly Fedora). So I'm a PC gamer, and I wanted to try out the Steam on Linux so my question is:
Most of the games on Steam say that they require one of the three distros Ubuntu, Fedora, and Mint.
Some other games say they only require one (usually Ubuntu) which sort of makes me think that means thats the only one that it will work on. So if it list just one of the distro does that really mean it can't at all run on any other Distro?
By the way the Linux game I'm looking at is Serious Sam 3, which is one of those games that say they only require ubuntu.

A. It depends on how it's packaged.

A game developer that just releases a .deb with Ubuntu in mind just hung Fedora and SUSE users out to dry because they use .rpm packages. Of course if the source code is available one could always compile the game manually, but that doesn't mean that every "Linux program" works on every distribution by default, as they obviously don't.

Steam for Linux is still in Beta, so things are still up in air, as you've noticed with the varying system requirements; it often seems that Valve is really targetting the Ubuntu and Ubuntu-derivative segment because it thinks that's where the biggest user-base is, but I'm sure Fedora and the other rpm distros won't be completely ignored.

How do I run Steam games on Linux?

Q. I got Steam to work on Linux using Wine. All my games worked just fine for a while, but all of the sudden none of them will run (except Portal for some reason). When i try to open them it says, "Preparing to launch," then does nothing. Does anyone know what the problem is, or how to fix it?

A. You could use a program like WINE (Windows Emulator) to get it going. Or you can try a virtual machine but sometimes that wont load drivers and you still wont be able to play. The best option will be a dual boot of windows and linux. The reason being, that for the sake of stability, for the drivers to work, and for you to get a good performance it is just easier to play on Windows (since all PC games are generally designed for Windows environments).
