irc#linuxusergroup channel

[Ben Stanley]

This list is not for installing linux. It is about a program that runs 
on linux.

If you want help with installing linux, I suggest you find a mailing 
list that is related to your distribution. What have you got?

YellowDog: http://www.yellowdoglinux.com/
Debian: http://www.debian.org/
Mandrake: http://www.mandrakelinux.com/
suse: http://www.suse.com/

But, even better, open the CD that you have and try reading the 
documentation that's there. It is usually in a directory called doc, or 
there is a file called README that tells you where to find things. I'm 
sure you'll find it easier than you think to install linux.

You can also find lots of linux people on irc at irc.openprojects.net 
and irc.gnome.org , but you'll have to find a channel. I suggest you 
look at the documentation and web sites first.

Good luck.

Ben.
