What book i shud buy for linux ubuntu if i have never work with linux before?

Q. What book i shud buy for linux ubuntu if i have never work with linux before?

A. I'd recommend the book written by the Ubuntu team:

http://www.phptr.com/bookstore/product.asp?isbn=0132435942&rl=1

You can find cheaper prices on sites like eBay:

Since you've never worked with Linux, I'd suggest you either download or order a free Ubuntu "live" CD. You can run Ubuntu from the CD without actually installing it on your computer. This gives you a chance to work with it. At the end of the day, take the CD out and your computer will never know you were using Ubuntu.

What are some fun and educational software programs for an 11 year old girl?
Q. I'm looking for some good games or programs that I could purchase on a disk and download on my desktop so that my 11 year old girl can play and learn at the same time. I'm especially looking for games that will enhance her math skills, but would also like to find something for spelling and grammar, and history as well. Do you know of any such games? I want it to be a lot of fun so that she just thinks she's playing and having fun, but really she's learning in the process. Thanks!

A. Yahoo won't allow more than ten links to be sent so you will have to repair those that I destroyed with a space between the 'http' and the colon

Edubuntu is the only real environment for young learners and I don't say that lightly. Lots of stuff can now be used in windows so I hope you find this helpful.

gcompris includes algebra and other things that are supposed to be for ages 2 to 10: http ://gcompris.net/-About-GCompris-

Ktuberling is a potato head that you can make faces on etc. Here are some screenshots: http ://opensource.bureau-cornavin.com/ktuberling/

Tuxpaint is a paint program but lots more fun than most - check the lovely roses lol: http://www.tuxpaint.org/

Tuxtype is obvious but is for children. It looks fun. (ktouch is the real deal) there are 5 pages of screenshots: http ://tuxtype.sourceforge.net/screens/?PAGE=1

Tuxmath (this is just for the screenshots): http ://www.newbreedsoftware.com/tuxmath/screenshots/

Kplot Kig Kmplot kpercentage and kbruch are math and geometry tools (if it is not on the list you can soon get it by typing: (as an example) 'sudo apt-get install kig' into a text window like DOS http://edu.kde.org/kig/screenshots.php
http ://edu.kde.org/kmplot/screenshots.php http ://edu.kde.org/kbruch/screenshots.php http ://edu.kde.org/kalgebra/

Katomic is just a chemistry game where you become familiar with the elements and compounds (i believe!)

Kalzium is a fun but good periodic table: http://edu.kde.org/kalzium/screenshots.php Kstars is the stars (all of them!): http://edu.kde.org/kstars/screenshots.php 'step' and 'marble' are secrets I would like you to look at: http://edu.kde.org/marble/ (click on the name and then read the details)

Language tools include kverbos, kvoctrain ( vocabulary) Klatin and others (some are included - others you can get as instructed earlier. Look at these apps: http://edu.kde.org/kverbos/

Kturtle has math, geom and simple programming! http://edu.kde.org/kturtle/

there are all sorts of apps available which is what makes linux so great - it is free, too, and can be easy to use or you can learn a little about typing in commands which controls the system quickly, more accurately and with lots more power than with any other OS.

After all that- read this: If you are running Microsoft Windows or MacOSX you consider:

1. installing a Linux distribution or running a so called liveCD, or [wubi]
2. waiting for a while, since the next version of KDE (KDE 4) will most likely run on Microsoft Windows and MacOSX as well.

If you don't get some ideas from all that I will have to scream so lie if you have to. Email with any questions and excuse this huge answer but it is hard to investigate if you aren't familiar with where to look and I need all this info anyway. (I have saved me a copy of the links)

I want to make absolutely sure that I said why I got to doing the KDE searches etc. When I went to the first and then the second sites, I realised that it says a lot of the packages are available to use in windows (some with reduced functionality) so look out for that if you want one or two apps more than the others. And; investigate Linux a little. You may find you like it best. Ask friends, maybe.

Well, good luck educating your daughter lol and
Good night

How do i make videos on youtube?
Q. I know how to make videos on youtube wit just words and still pictures but how do you make videos on there with parts from a tv show or clips from a cartoon or anime with custom music or not with custom music? i see other people doing it all the time but i cant figure it out. can someone please tell me specificly how to do it? thank you

A. TO MAKE VIDEO:


(capturing Tv clips is in the end)



Equipment REQUIRED (for computer uploading):
1. Camera (important, and must be able to connect to computer)
2. Cable to connect camera to computer
3. Video Editing software (to put clips together in)
4. Internet (obviously)
5. A/V to camera cable


Useful FREE Programs:
1. Jahshaka (free special effects program For Windows, Mac, Linux)
2. Windows Movie maker (video editor, free in Windows)
3. IMovie (video editor, free in Macs)
4. Cinelerra (Advance video editor for Linux and Macs)
5. LiVES (Advance video editor for Linux and Macs)
6. Virtual Dub (video editor for Windows)

ALL great programs!!! tutorials on how to use each are all over the web.
A LOT of youtube videos out there too.

Importing and Editing Video:
After you've recorded your video connect your camera to your computer.

CAMCORDERS usually use firewire cables

DIGITAL CAMERAS come with their own cable to connect along with their own instructions on how to import files.

Import the files into your computer. for Camcorders (using tape) you will most likely need to use a video editing program to record the files from the Tape to your computer using a firewire cable. Then press record from camera on your video editing program.

Then Edit the files together using One or Several of the programs I listed above. OR with a program you have purchased.

Export the file. (WMV, and Mpeg files are recommended)



TO RECORD TV AND CARTOONS FROM TV, etc.


FROM TV:

for this you will need a special cable for your camera that can allow you to capture videos from A/V input jacks (RED, YELLOW, and WHITE JACKS... ie. Tv inputs, VCR inputs, etc.)
>check your local Circuit City or Radioshack they should have it...

Once connected you should be able to see and hear whats going on on your TV from your camera screen. CLICK record to start recording the parts you want.


FROM INTERNET:

You can download files off limewire (or FROSTWIRE *much faster) and cut out the parts you want for your video. Or you can do the same using youtube, be aware that the quailty won't be great, by using Zamzar (.com), File2HD (.com, or any online video converter.


PLEASE NOTE THOUGH THAT DOING THESE PAST TWO ACTIONS ARE ILLEGAL AND ARE NOT RECOMMENDED.
