Hat Linux. This manual is designed to help new and intermediate Linux users navigate and perform
common tasks. Keep in mind that Linux looks, feels, and performs differently from other operating
systems you may have used. Forget about the conventions of other operating systems and, with an
open mind, approach Red Hat Linux as a new, interesting, and versatile alternative.
This manual is task-oriented. You will find useful tips, hints, warnings, and screen shots interspersed
throughout. First, you will learn the basics of using Red Hat Linux, such as customizing a desktop,
configuring a printer, and getting online. Once the basics are covered, the tasks covered in this manual
become progressively more advanced.
Most users choose to work within either the GNOME or KDE graphical desktop environments (other
desktop environments are also available). The Red Hat Linux Getting Started Guide focuses primarily
on how to perform tasks in these two environments.
Topics discussed include:
• Using the graphical desktop environment
• Managing files and directories
• Working with documents
• Using the Web and email
• Working with a digital camera
After conquering the basics of your Red Hat Linux system, you may need information on more ad-
vanced topics. You can find this information in the Red Hat Linux Customization Guide, the Red Hat
Linux Reference Guide, the Red Hat Linux System Administration Primer, and the Red Hat Linux
Security Guide

Use this manual to learn about specific configuration options and how to put them into effect. When you are installing software that is not covered in the Red Hat Linux Customization Guide, it is often helpful to see what other people in similar circumstances have done.
