Your Ubuntu Linux "Guide on the Side"

Ubuntu-logo.png

This WIKI is a resource for people to learn how to work in the Open Source environment.
I would like to share from what I have learned when using Ubuntu Linux and have learned when using the Linux operating system over the past 12 years...

I intend to write full notes on how to use many of the applications listed below, but until then, I will provide links to documentation and list other resources such as tutorials and textbooks (if available) and possibly youtube videos for visual demonstrations...

Below are links to pages to provide useful help.

Westminster Links (Open Source / LTSP Project)

Typical workstation located in the Westminster Computer Lab

Seneca College (with the help of Murray Saul) created a Linux Computer Lab at Westminster United Church. Currently the computer lab uses LTSP (Linux Terminal Server Project) that connects workstations (fat clients) to a Linux server.The purpose of this project is to help Westminster develop a Linux lab support structure, and to become self-sufficient.
