I've found that searching for 'man topic' takes me right to many pages with 
topic's manuals. linux.die.net, tldp.net, and even man.cx now, are a few other 
typical sites.

I've also found that info pages on debian often have nothing more than the 
respective man page, and man pages often contain cursory information. 
Sometimes I think it should be a bug to have a useless man page in place.
