You simply can't use your Windows experience to predict the problems that you will have in Linux. They are different. If you really want to use Linux, I think that you would do better just to take the plunge.
<chuckle>I just have a different mindset than others. I've been known to not only read instruction manuals, but to read them before unpacking a new gadget.
People have been telling me to just "take the plunge" for almost three years.
I think I'm happier for having looked for shoals first. I've enjoyed the learning experience I've had.I think I've said before "if retirement isn't for learning something new, what use is it" ;)
You are trying to solve problems which simply don't arise in Linux, so do not need solving in Linux. Lisi
