    New INSTALL Questions

    Most important of all...forget windoze...you won't get far thinking Linux is like windoze because it's nothing like it...as we say Linux isn't windoze for a good reason. Don't pay for Linux it's free...you need to download the latest version of Ubuntu (I use Mint) and burn it to a Flash Drive...

    How to change Xubuntu to boot straight to desktop

    It's not something I'd advise doing as Linux is all about security. Not having a Login Password...anyone can access your computer files...it's even easier in Mint Cinnamon to do but that's not me.

    Removing Pesky Desktop Icons.

    In Linux Mint Cinnamon...to create a Desktop shortcut...go to Menu select the icon right click...choose Add to Desktop. To remove the shortcut...right click choose Move to Trash or Delete. Now you see it... Now you don't... Don't worry...the icon is still in the Menu.
