The following link might be of actual benefit to other strugglingnoobs, I only came across it recently:

http://computerdictionary.tsf.org.za/

There are a huge number of linux entries.

I noticed the cryptography entry is out-of-date vis a vis US export restrictions on strong encryption - I don't think there are any anymore. But there are patent issues affecting export.

Another suggestion for struggling n00bs is to PLEASE find someone who is dealing with a similar issue just as soon as you resolve whatever situation you were having problems with, especially if you had trouble understanding advice from more experienced users.

It's amazing how quickly we forget how difficult simple tasks can be.

Also, by repeatedly explaining a task to others, especially if we have to rephrase things several times to help them understand, we are cementing that process in our own minds and making it less likely that we will forget by the time we have to do it again.

Just my two cents based on several years of learning from helpful folks on forums.

:D

Or, an even better idea...

READ THE DOCS!

I know they're not perfect, but we're working on it.

They say if you play a Microsoft CD backwards, you hear satanic messages. That's nothing, cause if you play it forwards, it installs Windows.

oh my god! that site had everything from n00b typos to noobs trying to speak 1337! replacing E with 3 does not make you 1337 -_-' anyway I love the site and I have entered several full phrases that in the end entertained me with the translations
