Hi; I am moving into a post newbie stage of my Linux experience and I would like to find a friendly mailing list that will happily handle Linux kernel, my operating system questions and an occasional 'C' question. Some questions would be fairly deep others would reveal me as a newbie. For example; How does my BIOS at boot time know where other BIOSes like my video BIOS are? What in addressing distinguishes a main memory location from a video memory location? How are the various registers in the CPU, my Intel Memory Controller Hub, my Intel I/O Controller Hub distinguished by the CPU? How does BASH work? (I don't mean how do I use the command line; I mean that in the same way that I can read manuals on how gcc analyzes, parses, links and assembles binary executables, how does an interpreter work (a shell) work?) etc. ... Please I am not asking for answers to the above example questions here. I am asking, has anyone on this Fedora list had a good experience with a list that helped newbies move to being a guru? A newru, or perhaps a gubie, list? All suggestions of such lists you might have will be tried. Regards Bill
