    X Server is a client-server architecture


    Usually the client and server are the same machine

    Client sends keyboard and mouse commands Server returns graphic info Server stores and runs all applications

    To start X Server, in a command line type:


    startx

    Most Linux Versions offer 2 types of Desktop Environments


    GNOME KDE

    The differences are mainly in the look and feel of the desktop
    Where tools are located Menu layouts Visual Settings

    Like Windows, when you log in as a user, you are given a set of permissions on the system
    Most users are given permissions to read/write all non-system files and folders

    Only the root user is allowed to modify system files


    This is to protect the system.
    Always be careful when making system changes as the root user!

    Many functions in Fedoras GUI are similar to those found in Windows systems
    File Managers Desktop with icons and shortcuts Task Bars Recycling Bin/Trash Folder Quick Launch icons

    Copyright 2010, ITT ESI

    Depending on if you are using KDE or GNOME


    Natalous (GNOME) Konqueror (KDE)

    These file managers work much like the Windows Explorer


    Explore Files/Folders Copy/Paste Connect to Network Drives

    Copyright 2010, ITT ESI

    Desktop contains frequently used files and shortcuts


    In Linux, the Desktop is called your Workspace In Fedora, shortcuts are called Launchers

    By default, you have two workspaces


    This can be helpful for sorting windows

    Copyright 2010, ITT ESI

    Fedora uses two task panels for sorting information


    The top task panel has information and menus
    This panel can also hold launchers (much like Windows quick launch bar)

    The bottom task panel represents open Windows

    The trash folder is much like the recycling bin


    It holds recently deleted files until you empty the folder It is accessible in the bottom task panel

    Note:
    Only the GUI uses the trash panel Deleting files via the command line will permanently delete the files

    Fedora comes with many applications preinstalled


    Office Suites Photo Editing Software Web Browser Email CD/DVD Players/Burners

    Many Applications can be downloaded and Installed

    Advanced Desktop Features are Eye Candy


    Shading of Windows Desktop Cube Wobbling Windows

    These features require your computer to have a decent video card to use them By Default, Advanced Desktop is Disabled
    Linux tries to be compatible with older hardware, so just the basic visual environment is loaded.
