In the year 2000 switched from Windows to the Linux operating system. The first steps weren't always easy, but the beginner friendly Suse distribution (now Opensuse) helped me.

In the meantime I gave up Suse in favor of (the less beginner friendly) Slackware Linux and got what I wanted: A stable, secure, open and well documented operation system. It runs well out of the box, but if I want to or have to, I can get everything under my control.

By the time I could gather some experiences which I wrote down on this pages. This is my meager attempt to give something back to the open source community.
