I'm not looking to become a expert. I only wish to know all the possibilities some day


That's exactly how a lot of us feel.  When I buy an appliance, I don't want or need to become an expert in all of it's ins and outs.  I wish to learn enough to operate and maintain it safely and efficiently, but that's all.  I want to run applications, not the operating system!

That's one of the reasons why this forum is so cool.  There are some wonderful geeky people here who are experts that have gone to a lot of trouble to make Linux usable by the rest of us!

A couple of things I find useful are:

  • I check this forum before updating, to help avoid problems that others have run into that may be attributable to updates.
  • I keep a journal of what I wanted to do, what I tried, how it worked, and if it failed, how I fixed it.  Nothing fancy, just little notes that I add to my copy of the manual.
Enjoy Linux Lite!  There's no better distro for people like us who want to learn enough, but not to become "Linux experts."

Hi CSNLinux. Goed idee, Linux Lite.  ;)
And mostly you don't have to be an expert to use it if you don't want to do very difficult things.

I hope it will stay a goed idee ;)

Hi all!

After trying to get the most out of an old Windows Vista Laptop. There was nothing left to do then to start searching for another OS. For this laptop is an oldy, I found that Linux Lite was the best option for this device.
I have totally zero experience with Linux, so here I am on an unknown part of the digital world. 8)

I've been searching for different Howto's, but there are a lot of different views for the same problem.
So, that's why I signed-up here.

That's why I'm here.
To learn a lot share a lot, and maybe call myself a pro, some day :P
