Hello
I want to learn learn to use LINUX and I don't have an idea where to start. I'm a visual person. Is there a way you can send me a video or a manual where there would be images of a step by step tutorial on how to use LINUX?
The best way would be to download a LiveCD of some distribution. Burn it onto a disk and then just play around with it for a few days to see how you like and to see how things work. Learning by doing is the key.

Hello
Welcome to LQ!
Under the Main Menu you will notice a Linux tutorials choice. There are many good tutorials there. Also, on the internet there are hundreds of Linux Beginner tutorial videos. Just Google something like "beginning Linux tutorial videos". That should be a good place to start.
Best wishes!
