I just need to get use to linux... I did not used it for ages, and even when I used it before I never had to install/set up everything a friend's father helped me... It was back on a RedHat 3.x or perhaps even a 4.1...

If you have any other advices/tips that could be interesting for a newbie do not hesitate!

Just a few tips Apt-Get How-to if you decide to use that. Debian Lists you would want to subscribe to the security announce list for sure just to get notices of security updates to check your installed packages maybe the debian-user list but that has about 200-400 e-mails a day you can read it in a news reader if you wish there are also language specific lists as well. Knoppix France a french website for knoppix. The Unofficial Apt-Get web site for packages not included in the Debian mirrors. And as always the best resource on the internet Google Linux any error you ever get cut and paste into the search box and you should have many links to choose from. Another good site is Linux Questions that is about almost everything there is in linux.

BTW when did you last use Linux I started with Redhat 5.2 and that was if IIRC early 1998.
