Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

I'm looking for a site or some sort of "Linux IQ" test. I've been using Linux for a while and want to evaluate my proficiency in the OS and where I need improvement in my expertise (if that's the right word).
Surely you can judge how good you are on your own:
Do you need to read docs to configure every little thing?
Do you have to think twice how to accomplish a task, or can you do it straight away?
Do you make many mistakes in configuration files preventing associated programs working?
etc
How long would it take for you to write xorg.conf from scratch? How long does it to recover take when you screw up as root? Did you make a bootdisk? Do you have a livecd lying around? You can do that on your own and I might setup a quiz
