Using Linux (QUE) about £25 Very much Redhat Based... Good if you have Redhat. Running Linux (O'reilly) < £25 Solid Book, most of the concepts explained clearly, a bit dated but probably better for an 'unbiased' Linux and command line detail. Linux (Update 3 I think) (QUE) about £45 Pretty good book comes with Slackware Caldera and Redhat and Star Office ... But lacking in detail... Kind of spreads itself a bit thin on all three Distribs.. Networking Linux (Can't Remember who the publisher it's got a blue cover) can't remember the price Excellent book ( as a Network Newbie )on Networking explains concepts very clearly and explains how to setup IP Masq, PPP, Web Server Setup, Kernel compliation... I hope this helps...

Nothing great for you guy's and gal's, but for a total newbie to anything other than MS Windows, it was a big step. Biggest problem's I had were trying to get my graphics card to work (Diamond Fire GL1000 Pro), and I could not get X Windows configure my mouse. I had to get a new server for my graphics card, and had to disable USB support in my PC Bios. All in all, quite a painless task, and now I have a totally new OS to play around with. Can anyone recommend some good book's for getting to grips with Linux?, and are there any C.A.D. Programs that run under Linux?
