Fedora Linux

Chapter 2. Using Fedora on Your Desktop

Fedora Linux provides a solid desktop computing environment—including a graphical user interface, communication tools, and office applications—that goes well beyond the traditional definition of an operating system. This chapter focuses on using Fedora in the desktop role.

Tip

Where possible, the labs in this book include instructions for performing tasks using both the graphical user interface and the command line. If you are not familiar with entering Linux commands, see Lab 4.1, “Using the Command Line.”
