Hrm... something went wrong.
Hey, bad things happen to the best of us. Don't worry, the gnomes have been dispatched. Maybe try again in a little while.

The Ultimate Linux Cheatsheet Poster (TuxPoster) and Linux in a super small flash drive (TuxDrive)

March 27th - via: lxer.com
We recently launched a kickstarter for all Linux enthusiasts (for both the adventurous & the daunted :)) The campaign has two components to it : a 36''x24'' cheatsheet poster and Linux Mint on a super tiny flash. The cheatsheet poster is meant for 3 levels of users : the basic user (file operations, permissions, hotkeys etc), the intermediate (grep, regular expressions, sed and awk, shell scripting) and the admin (processes, networking and system admin). The tuxdrive (linux on usb) is a 8GB disk in a super small form factor and runs Linux Mint. The cool thing about this drive is that it can stay on the laptop or desktop forever in a non-obstrusive fashion. (Read More)
