Getting back to the original start of this thread.
Adding tinyminds.org would be nice, they have little short
tips just about everyday.

Knoppix 3.4 detected the lucent winmodem in my laptop. I don't use dial-up so I never tried it. It should be doable if we find out how Knoppix did it and then include the modules.

As for bookmarks, damnsmall is sort of the default. You get the local copy of the getting started w/ DSL. Firefox defaults to the Mozilla Firefox page.

In Mepis (Sept. or Oct. 2003 release) they had lots of cool links for newbies and online docs, linux news, etc. Then in the new beta releases almost all are gone. I'll have to find that copy and get teh list of links. I'm thinking of resources we could all use on occasion and stuff that would be VERY helpful to the linux or DamnSmall newbie.

Heads-up, action-in-progress....

I have assembled a small list of googled sites, and
pulled out many good texts from the forums in an effort
to compile some of this material into some html how-to's
scripts, and tips/hints that could be placed either
within the website itself, or built into a dsl
for use in any of the browsers...

When I get a moment....
( 9 new .dsl arrivals this morning )

I'll grab other links, docs, texts, and so forth from you folks,
and cull thru them with roberts & john to get something up and
going in the docs dept..

ripcrd6 -

I will have to take a look at Mepis 2003.10. I follow that distro closely also. I liked the last stable release because nvidia was detected and worked right at boot!

If I can get to it, I will spin it up and document the links referenced.

Take care

Chris
