This free ebook is written for the power user. Power users want the most out of their system: the most speed, the most glitz, the most sounds, or the most security. This free ebook shows how to do just that. Although you don't have to be a programmer to get the most out of this free ebook, you should be familiar with Linux and how to edit files. In particular, knowing how to download, install, and use the basic operating system is a must. You should be familiar enough with the Linux bash shell to create and traverse directories, search for applications, read man pages, and edit system files using whatever editor you are most familiar with. You should be familiar with commands like grep, find, and sudo. This free ebook does not completely encompass all the things you can do with Ubuntu. For most of the applications covered, there are dozens of alternate tools. And even the tools covered contain additional options and settings for doing more things than described here. The goal of this free ebook is to show you some of the tricks, hacks, and tweaks that you can do with the system so you can better customize it to your needs. I fully expect people to build on and extend these hacks.
