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 am running Red Hat 9 with the gnome desktop, and am deperately in need of directions to the location of the"show only iconified windows" setting. I cannot get to it by going to "properties" on the panel, and am so far stumped and rather frustrated. Any directions as to where this setting could be found would be EXTREMELY appreciated.
ufff, gnome.....
maybe that functionality you search does not even exist.
Gnome is very beautiful but not so powerful. If you are a "computer power user" (even a Windows one), I'd recommend KDE.
Oh, it exists...that's the problem. I've had to reset it once, then after a reboot, the problems back, and I can't find where I changed the setting last time. KDE seems to run really sluggishly on my machine (800mhz PIII, 756mb RAM)...any suggestions on how to fix that?
