How does a geek use his ubuntu (or similar Linus OS)? [closed] I'm a totally newbie in Linux (Now Ubuntu is my current OS), and most of my Windows habit is still strong, render me a little awkward on the new OS.

"Treat Ubuntu as an opportunity to learn different ways of doing thing. Not better, not worse, but different.

For example, I never use ALT-TAB to switch applications: there's a pager at the bottom of my screen which lets me see all my workspaces. It try to keep a browser open in workspace 1, a terminal open in workspace 10, and a few things in between.

If I need to switch to my browser, I click in the workspace 1 part of the pager and I'm there. When I have to use Windows each day at work, I miss the pager."
