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 guessing this must be an ACPI issue with my motherboard, but while running Linux (SuSe 9.1 Per.) my fans never want to calm down. They just keep running full speed ahead. In Windows they calm down after booting, but in Linux they just keep on revving away. Very noisy and annoying. Anyone else have this problem? Tried putting power management setting on "acoustic" in YaST, but no change. Any ideas?
shoulda said right out. Celeron 2.7ghz. i dunno why it does that, probably the cheapo motherboard HP used. Doesn't bother me too much right now, but if I ever get my sound card working, it will.

Sound Blaster Audigy LS. Supposedly supported in ALSA 1.0.6 now, but I can't get it to work. See my posts in the "SB Live and Audigy LS gain ALSA support" thread in HArdware issues.
