Linux Documentation Links
There are many websites about linux. This is an partial list of weblinks. I'm
sure there are alot more. I also included some programming links and others.
I release this to public domain. Bookmark this page, link to this page, mirror
it, or do what you want. If you want your page off or have any other comments,
email me at linuxmail.org (i.e.,
shengchieh@l....xm..l.org).
Also, if any webpage seems inaccurate or uses foul language, please email me and
I'll take them off.
If you wish to link to this page from your website,
add the following lines
<a href="http://shengchieh.50webs.com/index.html">
<img src="http://shengchieh.fileave.com/LDL_Logos2.gif"
width="200" height="100" border="2"></a>
to your webpage. The last three lines will produce the logos at the top of
this webpage. [1]
Warning #1: I had trouble grouping things together, especially the softwares.
There are overlaps. For example, some multimedia items should also be in music
or movie/video. Some CAD/rendering/graphics should also be in graphics. Some
forums are in distributions list. Etc. So check related topics.
Warning #2: I only read this email once a week and I'm not good at responding to
emails. So please do not expect a prompt reply (if I ever do reply). [If you
learn this website from a forum thru me, your best chance is to reach me there.]
DISCLAIMER: I do NOT claim the below websites are 100% accurate. Use their
knowledges at your own risk.
UPDATE 11/17/07: I started rearranging things - pardon for the dust (things in wrong places)
