I decided to post something a little more useful than my previous forum posts or blog entries.  I recently decided to jump over to Linux and so far I'm loving it. 

There have been quite a few times however that I just sat at my computer screen looking at the monitor trying to figure out what to do and do it withoutscrewing anything up.  I've found a few links I'd like to share to help anyone else who might be as new to this as I am.  Now, some of this might not apply to a lot of you since I'm running an AMD/ATI system with Linux....which apparently isn't the easiest thing to tackle.

Where I decided to start learning was the terminal, this guide helped me quite a bit:

http://linux.org.mt/article/terminal

It shows the basics of the terminal and goes into some commands (not all of them).

With my system, I had an unusual/rare graphics issue.  My minimap was causing graphics flickering, I had to X out of my minimap immediately on load in or I'd have to exit game completely and try again.  I eventually found a mod called "MoveAnything!" to turn off my minimap completely, which was really weird for me at first but I'm getting used to it.  I haven't had a problem since!

This is a work in progress, as I find useful links that would apply to most Linux users, I plan on posting them here to help others.  If anyone else has a neat guide or whatever to share, please comment.  I have yet to scratch the surface I'm sure and would appreciate it greatly.  Hopefully this will take out some of the tedious searching I've already done.
