I just noticed the "Bruce Perens' Open Source Series". It's series of Prentice
Hall books which are released under an "open publication license" a few
months after their publication. They can be freely downloaded and printed
(or read on screen, to save trees) - or, more fairly, used to preview the
book before you go and buy it.
You can see the list of books in
http://www.phptr.com/promotion/1484?redir=1
One of the interesting books I saw there and downloaded is "C++ GUI
Programming with Qt 3", an introductory book about Qt (3.2) written
by the Trolltech people. Since my intimate knowledge of Xlib, Xt, Motif
and Tcl/Tk are starting to become obsolete, I thought this is one book I
should read :)
Other books you can download on that site are
* Understanding the Linux Virtual Memory Manager
* Rapid Application Development with Mozilla
* The Official Samba-3 HOWTO and Reference Guide
* Implementing CIFS: The Common Internet File System
* Managing Linux Systems with Webmin: System Administration and
Module Development
* Intrusion Detection with SNORT: Advanced IDS Techniques Using SNORT,
Apache, MySQL, PHP, and ACID
* The Linux Development Platform
* Embedded Software Development with eCos
