I must say this forum is quite good in answering questions but I was also wondering if there are any other forums which are as good or better. I used to mess around with linux on an old laptop and one of the sites I went to and still do was www.linuxnewbie. For those who know, the days when that was ran by Sensei totally rocked. The information there was first rate until the flamers arrived after Sensei left.
Anyway just curious.
Thanks.

A computer scientist is someone who, when told to "Go to Hell", sees the
"go to", rather than the destination, as harmful.

hahha..no, I just remember the level of expertise was first rate. It was when linux was just starting to be "big" and everyone was learning with several "gurus" frequenting linuxnewbie. Nowadays if seems if people have questions they get flamed when the flamers seem to forget the url of the website in the first place.

FInd out if there is are IRC channels specific to your Linux distro.
Forums are nice, but there's nothing like the almost-instant help of the experts on IRC.

Thanks for the IRC suggestion as that does seem to be the best way to go IF you know how. So that would bring me to the question of what app and how to connect. I know there are applications like BitchX and all. I would like to use a command line based app for IRC. Is there a good tutorial? I guess I cold just use google for this
Anyhow, good point. It's just I get so used to forums that there are other excellent solutions as well.

I found irssi to be quite a nice command line IRC client to use. I used it extensively in OS X until X-Chat Aqua reached 0.5 or 0.6. I generally use the X-Chat 2.0 betas whenever I use Linux.
