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 just installed mplayer from the mplayerhq site. i cant find it in the /usr/bin or /usr/lib directories when i type "mplayer" all i get is a list of commands. how do i use this. i also downlaoded a gui for it but it gives no build instruction. does anyone know how to build this
did you build the package from source? did you use ./copnfigure --enable-gui? To usea skin you hve to unpack it and put it in your .mplay/skins folder ( create one if needed) Try reading the man pages and the html docs that came with mplayer
this is what i get
"-bash: gmplayer: command not found"
