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.

As promised we’re trying to be much better at doing maintenance releases for Xfce 4.14. In part, we had a hard time doing maintenance for Xfce 4.12 because with all the porting work it was hard to focus on fixing Gtk+2 bugs and many bugreports/fixes didn’t apply to both 4.12 and 4.14.
This has now changed and as many bugs apply to both Xfce 4.14 and the current 4.15 development versions we can much more easily backport fixes. Consequently we have already done quite a few maintenance releases so far and this week a few more followed, fixing bugs and featuring improved translations:
xfce4-panel 4.14.3 (4.14.2 had a bad release build)
xfce4-session 4.14.1
xfce4-settings 4.14.2
xfdesktop 4.14.2
Folow the link below for 4.15 (development model) information, screenshots and technical background.

Premiss, I'm a big fun of Fluxbox; so I think that XFCE beat it. If I spend time do config manually Flux and search
different programs like volumeicon ecc... in order to obtain the same of XFCE, just as well to use XFCE.
There is only thinks that XFCE must to be improved...GTK themes. If I use others themes, XFCE has some problems
to nm-applet menu and/or volume control background.
Consider that XFCE work so fine, I think that XFCE team must be focus attention to the look.

Portuguese,
Speaking of Xfce themes in Slackware, what happened to all the Xfce window manager themes that used to be in Slackware by default? Prior to Xfce 4.12 and 4.14 (in current), there used to be many more options for Xfce themes. Now there's what, maybe half a dozen? I distinctly remember there being MANY MORE options, such as in this vanilla Arch/Xfce installation:
0.8.9.2
=======
- Allow to create window with 1 line height. One should also disable the
scrollbar (--hide-scrollbar) to get 1 row window. (bug #16447)
- Fix 'Transparency setting ignored when using --color-bg' (bug #16309)
- Translation updates: Albanian, Belarusian, Polish, Portuguese, Slovenian,
Swedish
