…or with Linux, or on top of Linux, or under Linux. I’m not sure, but here I am with my gnome desktop on top of RedHat 9. I’ve got everything to learn. Unfortunately, I have to start at the most superficial and least interesting aspect of Linux: the desktop UI. I’m assuming that I’m going to find ways to peer under the desktop at Linux itself. Learning how to find a tool on the desktop that will tell me how much space I have left on my drive isn’t very rewarding. But that’s where I have to start. For example, I just figured out where Gnome hides the connection to my home network; this tells me nothing about Linux but a little about Gnome.

By the way, now that Linux and I are on a first name basis, I’m going to lowercase it.
