Trying to venture into Linux can be a ...humbling experience. Even after you got somehow through your mental block, there's just so much to learn when all you did under Windows was the very basic stuff. I never looked beyond the applications I needed.

Hi,

the one thing you forgot is that you are on Knoppix and the one thing you don't knew is:

There is a "Knoppix-Menu".

Either "K, Knoppix" or the penguin in the bar (for 3.4).

From there you can find:

- Printer Config
- Persistent Home config
- Desktop change (restart of the session you asked for)

and other useful things.

So what are for Windows the "System Settings" is for Knoppix the Knoppix-Menu and just in second instance the "Control Center" ...

PS: Have fun!

Vel darlink,
Zee problem mit Vindows is not zee cost. Zee cost is reasonable for zee function.
Zee problem is Vindows is not open code so ze owner has ze user by zee curlies. (and zee after market hw/sw vendors as vell)
I voot gladly pay fur Linux base vhat had a coherent install vizart fur hartvare unt softvare. yes? Vat ve havf heir is zee failure to communicate accompanied by techveeny view of zee definition of simplicity unt user friendlyness. (plus very snooty community)
But I still vill tryink to learn ze zystem of ze future! (but zen I am retired unt can spend zee time doink foolish thinks) :D

ahh bliss the choice.
Did those cherries have that choice before they were so cruelly squeezed ? Absolutely not sweety.

But you do have a choice....
But lets look another way, did you install windows yourself ?
Was it free (like free cherries?)
even if you did then youve been using windows presumably since birth so its bound to be a yank....

we have unfamiliar language and strange and peculiar ways but just becuase were different doesnt make us bad.

If your really a vegan then you made a life choice.... and I presume with better reasons than not liking meat. Its not a common choice but its not uncommon either.
When you speak to nono vegans they might not quite understand that when you mean vegan you mean vegan and if the chocolate contains milk its NOT! No not even a little!!!

Why would you choose linux.... ??? Why not ? becuase you can, becuase you want first choice. when you first became a vegan I doubt it weas simple - you had to keep explaining and even now you fuind yourself explaining.... but at least now you probably know lots of other vegans you can talk to and your practiced at dealing with carnivores!!

Take it one step at a time...
decide if you want to continue, heck the last thing I wanna do is coerce anyone to using linux.... but you just saw it.. it worked albeit not quite as you expected!!!
