Help me help you: Linux - roger_smith - 04-25-2015

Greetings,

I'm hoping to embark on a project soon to start creating some more Linux content. That being said, I want to make sure I'm giving info that will be helpful for people. I still have plans to build upon the thread linked in my signature, but what else do you want to know about linux? Looking to get some ideas from the community and start working from there.


RE: Help me help you: Linux - roger_smith - 04-26-2015

Still looking for ideas and feedback on this.

I'm looking forward to this @roger_smith , I love linux, and I think people undervalue it sometimes. "What is a good distro to use?" is quite a common question seen between both new and somewhat seasoned linux users. So maybe a well-detailed comparison of some distros from the linux pimp himself could get the ball rolling on this? Maybe a tutorial with dual booting? I know a few people here would want to see an Arch-Linux install tutorial, (I've never used Arch, any good?) In addition, maybe talk about some not so known distos that deserve some credit (like elementary os, I must say, it could serve as a great replacement for OSX and Windows). I hope this turns out well!

Don't know how to install arch? Use the beginner wiki, full of info on how to install, with extra insightful information. Don't think a tutorial on here is needed.

everything you just said is stupid lol
don't say you "love linux" and then go on to show that you have little to no understanding of it or any of its counterparts

I would like to see an introductory tutorial (commands).

I'll work on something like this. I think it'll be a good segway from my getting started tutorial.
