Hello All,
Its good to see you all sharing ideas and contributing towards the
open source revolution.Well, I got introduced to linux only a month
ago by one of my coworkers, and I must admit that I found it a bit
difficult to grasp at first.As I am starting to get used to it I am
finding it more productive as compared to Windows and getting more
excited about it I recently bought an eeePC, Its a marvellous
combination of mobility and productivity, what more would you want in
a notebook?
Since I am really new to Linux, I would really appreciate if you'll
could help me improving my linux skills.Could you please suggest me on
whats the best way of learning Linux in your opinion ? I mean do you
learn by yourself by means of trail and Error or Its worth attending
some professional Linux Training ?
Also does anyone know of Good Linux training Institutes in Vashi ? is
anyone here from around Vashi area ?
Thanks,
Rehman

Rehman Bhai,
Welcome to the world of linux!
The best way to learn is to work with linux. If you are a serious learner
you will find level of Linux Institute way below mark. The institutes get
money to teach you and not to get you teached. So buy a cheap PC, load linux
and start banging the key board. It worked for 90% of list, why not for you.

Agreed. Just install, play around with the OS and get your hands
dirty. You may buy a few books if you prefer to learn that way, but
nothing is more informative than the howtos assimilated on various
mailing lists of various FOSS projects and LUGs.

Short answer - you dont require training at an institute. But....
What is your background? and what is it you want to learn. Learning to
use a desktop is quite straight forward. Especially with a distro
like ubuntu / kubuntu. No need for any course. Google will answer
most questions, the rest this list will answer.
OTOH learning any of the 100s of different things that computers can
do along with free software is a never ending task. Again all
resources are available on the web and imo the institutes are a sham.
Learning takes from zero to infinity depending on what exactly you
are trying to do.
Also does anyone know of Good Linux training Institutes in Vashi ?
is anyone here from around Vashi area ?

It depends on what you want to learn about GNU/Linux.

Forget professional training institutes. Just experiment. If you get
stuck up, shoot off a question here. If we're not able to solve it
then get your machine to HBCSE ( mankhurd ). There are a lot of people
to help you there. If thats not feasible, i'm sure someone on this
list who works / stays near vashi will be more than happy to help you
out at your place :)
Best of luck!
