Abstract:
X.org upgrade botched? Someone just asked you to find out why a server
is no longer working, and it doesn't have a monitor? Tired of hearing
"RTFM" and not knowing how to RTFM in any sane way? Just looking to up
the ante in your Linux experience? Looking to share your command line
knowledge with others?
The focus of the talk will be on learning, specifically:
* Learning to navigate the command line (if you've ever tried logging
into a machine and your arrow keys don't work, what do you do?)
* Learning to read man pages (not just typing man 'command' and hoping
for the best)
* Learning new commands
* Learning to use old commands in a new way
* Most importantly:
* When there's a problem, steps you can take to solve it yourself
About the presenter:
Mark Carlson is a software developer at Turner Technologies
who enjoys Open Source software and climbing in the
rockies.
