I've just started using Lubuntu. It's the first time I've ever used Linux.


Can any of you send me a tutorial-video for new users or explain the basics to me?

Basic concepts


The same skills that Windows users learn are transferable to new Ubuntu users.



  1. Don't install crap. Installing crap makes more problems than it solves. Use the default Ubuntu repositories as a source for packages to install.



  2. Be zealous about not adding unnecessary PPAs to your software sources. This prevents package management issues.



  3. Don't use root privileges except when required. Misusing root privileges is a major security risk.



  4. Keep your system up-to-date and upgrade or reinstall the operating system when it reaches end of life.



  5. Don't use weak passwords or reuse the same password in multiple websites.
