 The Ubuntu Manual Team <http://ubuntu-manual.org> are proud to announce the
release of Getting Started with Ubuntu 10.04, a comprehensive beginner's
guide designed for the Ubuntu operating system. It is written under an open
source license and is free for you to download, read, modify, and share.
This manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as
surfing the web, listening to music, and scanning documents. With an
emphasis on easy-to-follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of
experience.

 Features

 Easy to understand - our manual has step by step instructions and is
jargon-free
A picture is worth a thousand words - lots of screenshots to show you how to
do tasks
All in one place - conveniently located in one file, so you don’t have to
look all over the web for help
Progressive learning curve - start with the basics, and learn as you work
through each chapter
Dozens of languages - translated into more than 50 languages, including
localized screenshots
CC-BY-SA licensing - download, modify, reproduce and share as much as you
like
No cost - our documents are all written by Ubuntu community members and
there is no charge to use them
Printer friendly - we have a version optimized for printing to save the
trees
Troubleshooting section - to help you solve common Ubuntu problems quickly


 You can download the manual for free as a PDF, or buy a printed copy
