Advantages of Knowing Some Basic Linux Terms and Terminology

Linux can seem heavy on jargon – especially for beginners – with such terms  as “X Windows” ,  “desktop environments” , “file managers” ,  “X servers” and GUI ( graphic user interfaces).   While it is not essential to know or understand how all these components fit together , it is most useful to be somewhat familiar with what might be considered the basics or the basic terminologies .   It can be said with time and experience you will come to be familiar with these basic terms.  Oft stated “If you hang around with flakes you will become a flake”.

Just as you do not have to be a mechanic to drive a car, but it will help you if you have a basic understanding of the components  and parts of a car , their use and description and basic automotive diagnostic skills,  it sure comes in handy if you have a basic and simple comprehension of these.  This way if problems occur you are a better situation to get things going and fix themselves or at the worst be able to explain them to others more experienced and adroit in the field in order to solve the problem and get your  Linux based computer system up and running and as well perform basic maintenance and updates.
