While the Ubuntu Linux distribution makes building a Linux system easy, once readers create a Linux system they'll need to know how to use and maintain it.There are dozens of Open Source applications installed by default on the Ubuntu system, with hundreds of other applications easily installed from the Internet. The average Linux user can get overwhelmed with the availability and complexity of the new software. Existing books on Ubuntu Linux cover the basics ofcreating a new system and show what software is installed. This book digs deeper into the underlying applications and features of the Ubuntu Linux system, providing in-depth information on how to get the most out of each application and system feature. Ubuntu Linux Secrets shows how to install the Ubuntu Linuxdistribution in most environments, including non-traditional situations, suchas dual-boot and text-based installations. The book then guides the reader through the default configuration of the Ubuntu workstation or server, showing tips on how to modify features for their own environment, and how to keep the system running properly. The book walks the reader through each of the installed applications, both workstation and server applications, showing how to get the most out of each application, rather than just how to use them. The book finishes by providing an overview of programming in the Ubuntu Linux environmentfor readers wanting to use Ubuntu as a software development platform.
