I have got a some questions for linux that maybe some of the more experience linux users
that are in AO can possibly help me with. I'm using mandrake 9 by the way.

How do i install software. I've read some articles on it but I'm getting really
stuck because certain installs are different then others. If someone could just summarize a basic how to for different files i would be thrilled. Also is there any tutorials that you read on learning linux and linux programming. I'm really into java since vb doesn't run. So right now I"m learning to be a java developer. Looking for Linux internet programming with java books or tutorials.
