This HOWTO +gives you a few guidelines on how to get the information you need, fast and +efficiently. Most are quite familiar with using the World Wide Web (WWW) +and Usenet News but as will be shown here there are many other methods that +can be as good or even better. + + +There are now many new translations available and special thanks go +to the translators for the job and the input they have given: + +<itemize> +<item><url url="http://www.ict.pwr.wroc.pl/jtz/Html/mini/Update.pl.html" + name="Polish translation"> by Tomasz Sienicki <tt/tsca (at) cryogen.com/ + +<item><url url="http://www.freenix.org/unix/linux/HOWTO/" + name="French Translation"> by Jean-Albert Ferrez <tt/Jean-Albert.Ferrez (at) epfl.ch/ + +<item><url url="http://www.poli.org/LDP-PT/mini-HOWTO/" + name="Portuguese Translation"> by Duarte Loreto <tt/dnloreto (at) esoterica.pt/ + +<item><url url="http://www.linux.or.jp/JF/" + name="Japanese translation"> by Satoru Takahashi <tt/hisai (at) din.or.jp/ + +</itemize> + + +<sect1>Copyright +<p> +This HOWTO is copyrighted 1998 Kjell Sundby, Kjetil Bakkeskaug and Stein Gjoen. + +Unless otherwise stated, Linux HOWTO documents are copyrighted by their +respective authors.

This +gives you a good starting point but after a while you will find yourself +interested in knowing more, updating your system and basically staying +informed. For simplicity this kind of information is here divided into +several types, the type you subscribe to, information you search for as +well as a bit on getting more specific help efficiently. + +Even if you don't get printed information of some kind with your Linux +packages you will along with any self respecting distribution get a +number of directories with documentation of some kind, ranging from +the tersest <em/README/ files for most software packages to the more +in depth <em/HOWTOs/, of which this is one. + +Have a look in the +<url url="file:///usr/doc" + name="document archive"> +where most packages store their main documentation and README files etc. +Also you will here find the +<url url="file:///usr/doc/HOWTO" + name="HOWTO archive"> +of ready formatted HOWTOs +and also the +<url url="file:///usr/doc/HOWTO/mini" + name="mini-HOWTO archive"> +of plain text documents. + +The +<url url="file:///usr/src/linux" + name="kernel source"> +is, of course, the ultimate documentation. In other +words, <em>use the source, Luke</em>. +It should also be pointed out that the kernel comes not only with +source code which is even commented (well, partially at least) +but also an informative +<url url="file:///usr/src/linux/Documentation" + name="documentation directory">. +If you are about to ask any questions about the kernel you should +read this first, it will save you and many others a lot of time +and possibly embarrassment. + +The online documentation is excellent for browsing and searching but +don't dismiss the printed version altogether; if you cannot even +get the machine to boot, how are you going to be able to read that +piece of information you need to get the system going again? + + +<sect>Subscription +<p> +<nidx>up-to-date!information resources</nidx> +This basically means you set up a subscription of some sort and then follow +the news as they come in. Be careful not to bite over more than you can +chew, <em/information overload/ is more than a buzzword. There is also +rather more junk out there than is just annoying, it is a real problem +these days. Read critically and be prepared to unsubscribe. + +There are two distinct medias for getting continuous updates: news and +mailing lists, though sometimes news is gatewayed to mail and vice +versa. In general news is a larger volume, larger noise source compared to +mailing lists. Trying to follow too many newsgroups is like drinking from a +fire hose. + +<sect1>Usenet News +<p> +<nidx>up-to-date!information resources!news</nidx> +Getting access to Usenet News is outside the scope of this HOWTO, there are +others that will help you with getting and reading News directly from a +Linux system. If you have never used News before you should be careful to +read the introductory information thoroughly. In spite of looking like an +anarchy it does have its own distinct culture, follow a newsgroup for some +time before posting yourself. Most importantly, look out for postings +called <em/Frequently Asked Questions/ or <em/FAQ/ as they will show you +the ropes for the group it is posted to, and most likely give you the +answer to what you are looking for. Asking an FAQ will earn you severe +negative credibility points as well as a place in many killfiles. + +FAQs should be posted regularly but if you cannot find it you can always +find it at the +<url url="ftp://rtfm.mit.edu" + name="main FAQ archive"> +at MIT. + +These are also available as +<!-- <url url="http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/hypertext/faq/" --> +<url url="http://www.faqs.org/" + name="web pages">. + + +Still, there is a lot of noise, spam and junk in News and this is where +killfiles come in. You will need a news reader with killfile capability and +when properly set up it will scan through a newsgroup according to a search +key of your own design and mark all flagged postings as already read so you +don't have to be bothered by the noise. This improves the signal-to-noise +ratio and lets you concentrate on the important parts. Similarly, if you +make noise in News others will killfile you so if you later were to ask for +help they will never see your post. + +Now to business: the following is a list of useful newsgroups: +<itemize> +<item><url url="news:comp.os.linux.announce" name="announcements"> +<item><url url="news:comp.os.linux.answers" name="answers, HOWTOs, FAQs etc."> +<item><url url="news:comp.os.linux.development.apps" name="development of applications"> +<item><url url="news:comp.os.linux.development.sys" name="development of the system"> +<item><url url="news:comp.os.linux.hardware" name="hardware"> +<item><url url="news:comp.os.linux.misc" name="misc"> +<item><url url="news:comp.os.linux.networking" name="networking"> +<item><url url="news:comp.os.linux.setup" name="setting up linux"> +<item><url url="news:comp.os.linux.x" name="X11 on linux"> +<!-- +<item><url url="news:comp.os.linux." name="">. +<item><url url="news:comp.os.linux." name="">. + --> +</itemize> + +Many national hierarchies also have Linux groups, such as the +<url url="news:no.linux" name="Norwegian"> Linux groups. If you +cannot find your national or local group you might be able to use +<url url="http://www.deja.com" + name="Deja"> +to find the names for you. + + +<sect1>Mailing Lists +<p> +<nidx>up-to-date!information resources!mailing lists</nidx> +Unlike Usenet News a mailing list is centralised, someone sends a mail to +the server and the server in return mails everyone that is subscribed to +that particular list. These lists are generally low volume but also very +low noise. Any breaches of the charter will be looked harshly upon. Equally +seriously it will delay the development or the project that the list is +dedicated to. When you subscribe you will normally get an introductory mail +describing the charter, again you are strongly recommended to read this +very carefully. + +There are many types of mail servers that can handle a list and you will +need some information on how and where you can subscribe. + +One of the most common list servers is <em/Majordomo/ which is what the +list server at +<url url="mailto:majordomo@vger.rutgers.edu" + name="vger.rutgers.edu"> +is running. To learn how it works you send a mail message with the word +<tt/help/ in the body. If you send it something it cannot parse you will +get this help message anyway. +If you instead mail it the word <tt/lists/ you will be returned a list of +all mailing lists it serves, and that can be a considerable number. + +Other mailing lists use several addresses, one where you send your requests +such as <tt/subscribe/ and <tt/unsubscribe/, and one where you send your +contributions to the list which is usually also the address from which the +list is also redistributed to you. +Again, sending it the message <tt/help/ or something it cannot parse will +give you the help information. +An example: you send the word <tt/subscribe/ to the +address <tt/corned-beef-requests@somelistserver.org/ +and then you get mail from and contribute to the +list address <tt/corned-beef-list@somelistserver.org/ +until you unsubscribe. + +A few tips before you start sending in to mailing lists: +<itemize> +<item>Do not send <tt/subscribe/ etc. to the list itself, only to the +server address, otherwise you will look silly and you will annoy +people. There can be several thousand subscribers to a list and if such errors were to +pour in the noise would be too much. +<item>When you subscribe you will often get an introductory message +sent to you automatically. Read it carefully as this should answer +most of the initial questions. +<item>Do not gateway mailing lists to news without asking first as this +can cause mailing loops as well as spam. +</itemize> + +As mentioned above, +<url url="mailto:majordomo@vger.rutgers.edu" + name="vger.rutgers.edu">. +is one of the main mailing list servers and here is an abbreviated index +of what is available for the Linux community: + +<itemize> +<item> linux-8086 (Linux on Intel 8086 processors) +<item> linux-admin (Administration of Linux systems) +<item> linux-alpha (Linux on the Alpha processor platform) +<item> linux-apps (Applications) +<item> linux-arm (Linux on the Arm processor platform) +<item> linux-bbs (Linux Bulletin Board Systems) +<item> linux-c-programming (C-programming with Linux) +<item> linux-config (Configuration) +<item> linux-console (Console) +<item> linux-diald (Dial on demand daemon) +<item> linux-doc (Linux documentation) +<item> linux-fido (Linux fido network) +<item> linux-fsf (Linux and the Free Software Foundation) +<item> linux-ftp (Linux File Transfer Protocol) +<item> linux-gcc (Linux and the GNU C compiler) +<item> linux-gcc-digest (Digests of the above) +<item> linux-hams Amateur Radio and Linux discussions +<item> linux-hppa (Linux on the HP Precision Architecture processor platform) +<item> linux-ibcs2 (Linux and the Intel Binary Compatibility system) +<item> linux-ipx (Linux and Novell IPX networking protocol) +<item> linux-isdn (Linux and Integrated Services Digital Network) +<item> linux-japanese (Linux and Japanese extensions) +<item> linux-kernel (Linux kernel) +<item> linux-kernel-announce (Announcements for the above) +<item> linux-kernel-digest (Digests of the linux-kernel list) +<item> linux-kernel-patch (Linux kernel patches) +<item> linux-laptop (Linux on laptops) +<item> linux-linuxss +<item> linux-lugnuts (Linux User Groups) +<item> linux-mca (Linux and the IBM Micro Channel Architecture bus) +<item> linux-mips (Linux on the MIPS processor platform) +<item> linux-msdos (Linux and MSDOS) +<item> linux-msdos-devel (Linux - MSDOS development) +<item> linux-msdos-digest (Digest of the linux-msdos list) +<item> linux-net (Linux and networking) +<item> linux-new-lists (New mailing lists for Linux) +<item> linux-newbie (Linux and the inexperienced) +<item> linux-newbiew +<item> linux-nys +<item> linux-oasg +<item> linux-oi +<item> linux-opengl (Linux and the OpenGL graphics system) +<item> linux-pkg +<item> linux-ppp (Linux and the Point-to-Point Protocol) +<item> linux-pro +<item> linux-qag +<item> linux-raid (Linux and Redundant Array of Inexpensive Drives) +<item> linux-scsi (Linux and Small Computer Systems Interface) +<item> linux-serial (Linux and the serial system) +<item> linux-seyon (Linux terminal system) +<item> linux-smp (Linux Symmetric Multi Processing) +<item> linux-sound +<item> linux-standards +<item> linux-svgalib (Linux and the SVGA library) +<item> linux-tape (Linux and tape storage) +<item> linux-term (A Linux communications program) +<item> linux-userfs (Linux User File System) +<item> linux-word +<item> linux-x11 (Linux and the X Window System, Version 11) +<item> linux-x25 (Linux and the X25 Networking Protocol) +<item> sparclinux (Linux on the SPARC processor platform) +<item> ultralinux (Linux on the Ultra-SPARC processor platform) +</itemize> + +There are of course a number of other lists on other server.

Still, there is the chance of meeting real +people, face to face, in Linux user groups (LUG) that are all over the +world. Search the lists that are published regularly, there could be +one near you. + +Conferences, install fests, creating new user groups and more is regularly +announced on Usenet News +<url url="news:comp.os.linux.announce" + name="announcements">. +Such events are excellent venues for staying on top of events and also for +getting help. + + +<sect>Searching +<p> +<nidx>up-to-date!information resources!search engines</nidx> +There are many avenues open when searching for something particular. +Remember you can also use the web search engines and that some, like +<itemize> +<item><url url="http://www.altavista.com/" + name="Altavista"> + +<item><url url="http://www.excite.com" + name="Excite"> + +<item><url url="http://hotbot.lycos.com/" + name="Hotbot"> +</itemize> +can also search Usenet news. + +There are numerous search engines available but they are not all equal +neither in method of rating relevance nor in size of database. +For established, authoritative pages I recommend using +<url url="http://www.google.com" + name="Google"> +since it scores pages by the number of links pointing to them. +People often link to pages they find important or useful and +Google uses this. + +Google takes time to score a page properly so it is not that useful +for searching for the newest or more exotic topics. For that I +normally recommend either the very fast and wide spanning +<url url="http://www.alltheweb.com" + name="AllTheWeb"> +or meta engines, web systems that forwards your request to +a number of other search engines, receives the results, +collates and scores before presenting you with the result. +My favourite meta engine is +<url url="http://www.go2net.com" + name="Go2Net"> +formerly known as MetaCrawler. + +Such preferences are all subjective and the systems improve +continuously so you need to experiment yourself. There is +no perfect search engine and as less than 10 percent of all pages +are indexed you need to try several engines if you don't succeed +at first. + + +Also remember that +<url url="http://www.deja.com" + name="Deja"> +is a dedicated news searcher that keeps a news spool from early 1995 and onwards. + +Even though more and more things take place of the web these days, do +not forget that there is a lot of information available on the various +ftp servers around the world. Some web search engines also index ftp +servers but the tool of choice is still the Archie servers, systems +that regularly scan major ftp servers around the world and keep lists +of files. These can be accessed in many ways, either by Archie clients +like <tt/archie/ or the X11 version <tt/xarchie/ which should be +available on any well maintained linux system. Failing that you can +access archie servers using telnet to any of the servers listed + +<itemize> +<item> <url url="telnet://archie.au" name="Australia"> +<item> <url url="telnet://archie.univie.ac.at" name="Austria"> +<item> <url url="telnet://archie.belnet.be" name="Belgium"> +<item> <url url="telnet://archie.funet.fi" name="Finland"> +<item> <url url="telnet://archie.th-darmstadt.de" name="Germany"> +<item> <url url="telnet://archie.kornet.nm.kr" name="Korea"> +<item> <url url="telnet://archie.unipi.it" name="Italy"> +<item> <url url="telnet://archie.kuis.kyoto-u.ac.jp" name="Japan"> +<item> <url url="telnet://archie.icm.edu.pl" name="Poland"> +<item> <url url="telnet://archie.luth.se" name="Sweden"> +<item> <url url="telnet://archie.rediris.es" name="Spain"> +<item> <url url="telnet://archie.doc.ic.ac.uk" name="United Kingdom"> +<item> <url url="telnet://archie.bunyip.com" name="United States"> +<item> <url url="telnet://archie.internic.net" name="United States"> +</itemize> + + +Of course you should try to use the server closest to you, and to see +the list of current server you can either start the Archie client with +no arguments or, if telnetting, by querying the server. Online help is +available. Unfortunately not all servers are synchronised, so you +might have to search a few before finding what you are looking for. + +Recently a more user friendly ftp index server entered the net, the +<url url="http://ftpsearch.lycos.com/" + name="ftpsearch"> +engine, featuring many options and with a rather stark interface, +in the best Unix tradition. + +Most of these offer help on efficient searching techniques, reading this +can speed up your searches enormously. Investing a little time here will +pay off in the long run. + +If you have trouble getting onto the Internet but have mail then you +should have a look at the <em/access via mail/ FAQ. Naturally you can +get it over e-mail using the +<url url="mailto:mail-server@rtfm.mit.edu" + name="US, Canada and South America server"> +entering only this line in the BODY of the note: + +<tt>send usenet/news.answers/internet-services/access-via-email</tt> + +or +<url url="mailto:mailbase@mailbase.ac.uk" + name="Europe, Asia etc server"> +entering only this line in the BODY of the note: + +<tt/send lis-iis e-access-inet.txt/ + +or look through your news spool if you have one locally in +<url url="news:news.answers" + name="news.answers newsgroup">. + +Finally, you might wish to get more information from a person, say an +author of a software package. usually you can find the e-mail address +in the accompanying documentation which normally would be in the +<url url="file:///usr/doc/" + name="documentation subdirectory"> +but failing that and also if the given address is no longer valid you +could find help in the FAQ for +<url url="http://www.qucis.queensu.ca/FAQs/email/finding.html" + name="finding e-mail addresses">. + + +<sect>Conclusion +<p> +<nidx>up-to-date!conclusion</nidx> +Finding information fast and efficiently is more of an art than a science +and we still have not touched on the really difficult part: how do you +determine the actual <em/quality/ of the information? It is outside the +scope of this HOWTO to tell you that but it is still something you should +keep in mind. You should at least check the information is recent enough +to be current to your problem. + +As a bare minimum you should ensure a minimum of validity of the +documentation to avoid misleading or malicious advice. A surprising +number of people suggests things like <tt>rm -rf / </tt> as a solution +for a given problem. Some see it as an obvious prank, the unaware can +end up destroying his or her setup. Just to avoid such things you +should check out a few things before rushing ahead: + +<itemize> +<item>Is there a name attached to the document? If people are serious +about what they write it should not be anonymous. +<item>Is it dated? Documents tend to evolve as the technology advances. +Be sure you are reading the latest version. Internet search engines can +help you here. +<item>Are there any followups? Be sure to check any followups or comments +to what you read, otherwise you might miss a warning or a correction. +</itemize> + +If you keep this in mind you should not fall for too many of the scams +that circulate on the net, from get well-cards for Craig Shergold, +chain letters to the more recent problems of Trojans for Linux that +tries to trick you into mailing off your password. + +There is a number of FAQs available that deals with more serious research +method topics and you can also see a comprehensive +<url url="http://cn.net.au" + name="on-line version">. + +Finally, do not forget the +<url url="http://www.LinuxDoc.org/" + name="Linux Documentation Project"> +site that coordinates documentation for Linux. Updates and new documents +are issued regularly, reflecting the development in the field. + + +Quoted from someone's signature:<p> +<em>Be alert! The world needs more lerts.</em> + +</article>
