Adger Linux Beginner Linux Resource

The free operating system Linux is a clone of the UNIX operating system.  UNIX , itself, is commonly regarded as one of the most powerful and versatile computer operating systems around.  UNIX is widely used as the operating system for computer networks running on large and powerful computers.  In the late 1980’s , a student at the University of Helsinki, named Linux Torvalds, began to develop a clone of UNIX for the standalone workstation – the regular computer PC that most of us now use at home or the office.

Since its release in 1991 the original version of Linux has been constantly modified and improved – both by Mr. Torvalds himself and by a large number of computer software programmers worldwide who help maintain and update new releases of the Linux core – its operating kernel  on a regular basis.

Every new version of Linux is mde available free-of-charge on the internet for anyone to download.  Although this “official”  version is regularily updated anyone is free to make changes to the kernel without fear of litigation because Linux is an open source software.  The reverse holds true as well- any changes and improvement made to the software must be made freely available to others.
