This value-packed software and book product takes readers beyond manuals and provides step-by-step instructions for "cool and fun" add-ons, new programs, utilities for Linux, plus "insider" modifications they can make to their Linux system. This is the first book to appeal to the playful "hacker" mentality of millions of Linux users, and contains a CD packed with hundreds of megabytes of valuable programs, from GNOME to KDE, programming tools and utilities, games, and the Linux kernel itself.
