Add/Remove Programs = GnoRPM/kPackage
Autoexec.bat =/etc/rc.d/rc.local
StartUp = For KDE ~/.kde/Autostart/ - For GNOME click Control Center, then select Session and Startup Programs
Dialup Networking = (Depends on which distro your using. Too many methods to list here.) For *OLD* Red Hat run `modemtool` and then `netcfg`
Device Manager = run `lspci` and/or `usbview` (other tools may also apply)
When I started with my very first distro of Red Hat 4.1, I found it very difficult to just fall into, and run with.. but I got lucky, and found a crowd through IRC (which I was already familiar with in Windows) and they `sorta` took me in under thier wing, so to speak. All the HowTo's, and README's in the whole world, can't take the place of human guidance. With their encouragment, and help, I stugled forward. And here I am today, 4 and a half years later, now mentoring a few other `newbies` I've met over IRC. More often then not, I'd find the answers I needed, not by asking, as much as just simply watching the Q's n A's of others. I guess where I'm going with this is, that there isn't JUST *html* help out there. A good place I've found (recenlty) is #linuxhelp @ undernet. They regulars there don't specialize in Red Hat or Slackware, GNOME or KDE, but in a little bit of everything. This may not be the best sollution for everyone, but it's definatly one to put in your lil `bag-o-tricks`.

I didn't want to mirror freetype.org, I only wanted the fonts.
While all of you are doing that, I`m busy achiving the Freetype Project download page, before it gets /.`ed.
The `Registry` is a Microsoft-only concept.. linux doesn't use one. for your usual config setings, start by searching through the /etc directory.
