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 have joined this forum recently.i wanted to post a question but could not as the size of myquestion+dmesg output+lspci output became 35k.since i'm not granted attachment rights any workaround?

the dmesg and lspci reports are attached with this request.i'm having the following problems/questions regarding them.i will be very thankful for any support that you may lend.
regarding usb card:-
i would like to know if ohci & ehci drivers are installed on my system.
if yes then are they sufficient to run this card.if no then from where can i get them.
from the documentation i'hve seen regarding 72010 and ohci/ehci it appears that any ohci/ehci driver should be able to drive all type of ohci/ehci cards.am i correct?
regarding pctv card:-
is the required driver available on my system.
is any application available for running this card,and how can it be had.
i will be thankful for any help on these problems .
