Linux Operating System - Crash Course for Beginners
Рет қаралды 2,107,441
Күн бұрынLearn the basics of the Linux Operating System in this crash course for beginners. Linux is a clone of the UNIX operating system, so understanding one is understanding the other. The goal is for you to get a full understanding of how the Linux OS works. If you're still using Windows or Mac OS, you can still learn Linux using a virtual machine.

I'm only 20 minutes in and you are making it easy for me (75 yo) to understand most of what you are saying. Microsoft is killing my pc that may grandson built for me back in 2015 with os 7 which I upgraded to os 10 for free. But now it takes my system over 15 minutes to startup and it has a lot of os 11 being downloaded. All I use the computer (tower type) for is reading (52 inch monitor as I have bad eye sight) and surfing (T Mobile hub connection). I don't need the office stuff. Thanks for making it easy to comprehend as I'll be watching this for a while.

2:07:55 To show "ps" list of processes, it is more useful to use "ps -eaf" rather than "ps -A" to show memory use, CPU time, how long ago started, user-ID, and more. This usually outputs several pages of text, so you may also want to pipe it through grep, less, awk, or sort+head, to focus on the processes you want. The "pstree" command will show which procs are related to each other, as parent & child, in a branch/indented tree. For a quick screen of the heaviest process load on your machine... use command "top" which shows top CPU use, updated every 10 seconds. (press "q" to quit)

Two very minor comments, neither of them reduced the huge value of the course, I'm only mentioning them in case they help. At about 1h20 you used 'cd ..' but hadn't mentioned '..' before. Also in the section on 'apt' a quick description of what a linux 'package' is might help. Thanks again for a really helpful video.

Stick with Mint. Save yourself the frustration of Ubuntu (or Gnome 3 to be exact). Mint/Cinnamon is far better than Ubuntu/Gnome. In the recent decade or so, Gnome has the habit of looking for any program that works just find, discarding it, and then they proceed to build an inferior version of it, with about 5% of its original functionality! Just compare Gnome Files to the original old Nautilus (Or Nemo in Mint). Tl;dr: Stick with Mint/Cinnamon, Gnome is trash.
