Linux entry must-read articles

You have never used windows, never touch Unix, only know to drag a file to drag, only know that the hard disk is c:d: E: But never study the area table, may use VC programming, very accustomed to its integration environment ....
One day, for whatever reason, maybe it's the boast of a journalist who doesn't know the memory and hard drives in the newspaper, or if the boss asks you to use it for a project, or if the students have something you don't feel very earthy about, or if you've heard that there is more hope for the experience of finding a job .... Anyway, you want to install a Linux on your own machine. OK, this article is for you to write, because from now on, you will have a pile of questions you will think of the previous experience in Windows computer-related experiences seem to be completely useless. You would think "Linux is such a hassle". You've never been in a car, but you have to take the car apart and feel like you have nowhere to go. OK, this article is written for you.
Why you should learn Linux. In fact, you don't have to learn Linux, if you want to use a computer to make your work, such as typing, typesetting, statistics, etc. more efficient, Linux does not. Windows, or I recommend Windows 2000 is your best choice, its support for Chinese is very good, very stable, there are countless applications, and if you take risks, you can also use pirated, free. Linux will cause you a lot of trouble, the installation will cause system data loss, unable to drive network card/sound card/Display card/display, unable to configure Chinese, graphics interface slow, and so on.
It was easy to do it on windows, such as changing the display frequency or installing a new NIC driver in Linux, it became as if you were going to have to go back to your freshman computer lesson. Hehe, what is the advantage of Linux? You would ask. In fact, Linux is no good, from the perspective of use, its only advantage is that it is our own, and Windows is better, is Microsoft's. "What's going to happen?" "You may ask again." The difference is that Linux allows you to study it, and by using Linux you can get a deeper understanding of the computer-not just a fully automatic box.
The computer is a magical thing, you might admire (I do) for programmers who write windows, or hacker (sorry, not hacker for remote attack systems) for those who can invent better algorithms for safer systems, then you should know that Sitting in front of a Windows machine and dragging the mouse around all day may give you a good typist's salary, but it will never get you into the world of a real computer-a free-thinking hacker, or you can only be a user of Windows forever-and nothing bad, Many leaders don't have a computer--it's impossible to have a chance to write a Windows themselves.
One of the less wonderful results is that when the world is full of Windows slaves, we have to pay more for this technology from Microsoft, and in some societies we call this exploitation.
Speaking so much, nothing is to say that carrots cannot be cut at both ends, at least for now. To think of what others will do for you, system installation all the way to enter, hardware configuration point two mouse, sorry, please use Windows 2000. If you're ready for all this, then watch it.
First, how to get Linux: I do not have Linux AH. 1. To the software store to purchase.
2. Find someone you know (don't think about the copyright issue)

3. Download online (If you are fast enough)

Second, the installation of Linux: How to install this software ah? Is it possible to double-click a Setup.exe file directly under Windows?    Hey, how can I not find exe file AH? Redhat8.0:
Graphic mode: Http://www.sejishikong.net/tools/system/rh8_graphic_install.zip text (hard disk) mode: http://www.sejishikong.net/tools/ System/rh8_text_install.zip Mandrake9. 0: Should and redhat8. 0, pretty much?
Third, the hardware problem: I have installed Linux correctly, and can start normally, but it seems that some hardware does not work properly?
1, my USB interface photoelectric mouse How to use: (did not find the corresponding article to solve)
2, graphics support issues: please visit the corresponding Linux manufacturer's website to see if your video card is in support of the list. Mandrake:http://www.linux-mandrake.com/zh-cn/hardware.php3 REDHAT:HTTP://HARDWARE.REDHAT.COM/3, I want to hear the voice of freedom:
For the VIA chip: If the use is: redhat7.3/7.2/7.1/6.2lp/6.2/6.1/6.0,mandrake8.2/8.1/8.0,suse8.0/7.3,redflag3.2/3.0/2.0/1.0
Can download: Http://downloads.viaarena.com/drivers/audio/Audio_Linux_V1.20_Package.zip in the inside to find the right version for you, after decompression, direct. Vinstall can do it.
If your Linux version is not listed above, or the motherboard chipset is not via, don't worry, because you have the following two workarounds.
ALSA: This kind of thing is most popular, almost supports all the sound card chip. ALSA sound card driver installation (troubleshooting VIA8233 sound card problems in RH8)
http://www.linuxfans.org/nuke/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=4227 oss: This kind of thing is relatively simple, but to spend dollars to register,  Otherwise it will be installed again after a period of time.

http://www.linuxfans.org/nuke/modules.php?name=News&file=article&op=view&sid=452
If the above methods still do not solve the problem, you can like me, With a stupid method (I use redhat8.0): In the X-windows, select the network device configuration, select one by one in the NIC type, until the error prompt is not present, and then configure the IP and other things, if the error, and then re-select the network card type until successful. --That's how I got it done. The method is a bit stupid, but more effective.
