The Anatomy of a Linux User
================================
**Some new GNU/Linux users understand right away that Linux isnt Windows. Others never quite get it. The best distro designers strive to keep both in mind.**
### The Heart of Linux
Nicky isnt outwardly remarkable in any way. Shes a thirtysomething who decided to go back to school later in life than most. She spent six years in the Navy until she decided a job offer from an old friend would be a better bet than a career in the armed forces. That happens a lot in any of the post-war military service branches. It was at that job where I met her. She was the regional manager for an eight state trucking broker and I was driving for a meat packing outfit in Dallas.

We became good friends in 2006, Nicky and me. Shes an outgoing spirit, curious about almost anyone whose path she crosses. We had an ongoing Friday night date to go fight in an indoor laser combat arena. It wasnt rare for us to burn through three 30 minute sessions in a row. Maybe it wasnt as cheap as a paint ball arena, but it was climate controlled and had a horror game feel to it. It was during one of those outings that she asked me if I could fix her computer.
She knew about my efforts to get computers into the homes of disadvantaged kids and I kidded her about paying into Bill Gates 401K plan when she complained about her computer becoming too slow. Nicky figured this was as good a time as any to see what Linux was all about.
Her computer was a decent machine, a mid 2005 Asus desktop with a Dell 19″ monitor. Unfortunately, it had all the obligatory toolbars and popups that a Windows computer can collect when not properly tended. After getting all of the files from the computer, we began the process of installing Linux. We sat together during the install process and I made sure she understood the partitioning process. Inside of an hour, she had a bright new and shiny PCLinuxOS desktop.
She remarked often, as she navigated her way through her new system, at how beautiful the system looked. She wasnt mentioning this as an aside; she was almost hypnotized by the sleek beauty in front of her. She remarked that her screen “shimmered” with beauty. Thats something I took away from our install session and have made sure to deploy on every Linux computer Ive installed since. I want the screen to shimmer for everyone.
The first week or so, she called or emailed me with the usual questions, but the one that was probably the most important was wanting to know how to save her OpenOffice documents so colleagues could read them. This is key when teaching anyone Linux or Open/LibreOffice. Most people just obey the first popup, allow the document to be saved in Open Document Format and get their fingers bit in the process.
There was a story going around a year or so ago about a high school kid who claimed he flunked an exam when his professor couldnt open the file containing his paper. It made for some blustery comments from readers who couldnt decide who was more of a moron, the kid for not having a clue or his professor for not having a ummm… clue of his own.
I know some college professors and each and every one of them could figure out how to open an ODF file. Heck, even as much as Microsoft can be grade A, blue-ribbon proprietary jerks, I think Microsoft Office has been able to open an ODT or ODF file for a while now. I cant say for sure since I havent used Microsoft Office much since 2005.
Even in the bad ol days, when Microsoft was openly and flagrantly shoving their way onto enterprise desktops via their vendor lock-in, I never had a problem when conducting business or collaborating with users of Microsoft Office, because I became pro-active and never assumed. I would email the person or people I was to work with and ask what version of Office they were using. From that information, I could make sure to save my documents in a format they could readily open and read.
But back to Nicky, who put a lot of time into learning about her Linux computer. I was surprised by her enthusiasm.
Learning how to use Linux on the desktop is made much simpler when the person doing the learning realizes that all habits and tools for using Windows are to be left at the door. Even after telling our Reglue kids this, more often than not when I come back to do a check-up with them there is some_dodgy_file.exe on the desktop or in the download folder.
While we are in the general vicinity of discussing files, lets talk about doing updates. For a long time I was dead set against having multiple program installers or updaters on the same computer. In the case of Mint, it was decided to disable the update ability completely within Synaptic and that frosted my flakes. But while for us older folks dpkg and apt are our friends, wise heads have prevailed and have come to understand that the command line doesnt often seem warm and welcoming to new users.
I frothed at the mouth and raged against the machine over the crippling of Synaptic until it was splained to me. Do you remember when you were just starting out and had full admin rights to your brand new Linux install? Remember when you combed through the massive amounts of software listed in Synaptic? Remember how you began check marking every cool program you found? Do you remember how many of those cool programs started with the letters “lib”?
Yeah, me too. I installed and broke a few brand new installations until I found out that those LIB files were the nuts and bolts of the application and not the application itself. Thats why the genius behind Linux Mint and Ubuntu have created smart, pretty-to-look-at and easy-to-use application installers. Synaptic is still there for us old heads, but for the people coming up behind us, there are just too many ways to leave a system open to major borks by installing lib files and the like. In the new installers, those files are tucked away and not even shown to the user. And really, thats the way it should be.
Unless you are charging for support calls that is.
There are a lot of smarts built into todays Linux distros and I applaud those folks because they make my job easier. Not every new user is a Nicky. She was pretty much an install and forget project for me, and she is in the minority. The majority of new Linux users can be needy at times.
Thats okay. They are the ones who will be teaching their kids how to use Linux.

一个 Linux 用户的故事
================================
**一些新的 GNU/Linux 用户都很清楚的知道 Linux 不是 Windows .其他很多人都不是很清楚的知道.最好的发行版设计者努力保持新的思想**
### Linux 的核心
不管怎么说icky 都不是那种表面上看起来很值得注意的人.她已经三十岁了,却决定回到学校学习.她在海军待了6年时间直到她的老友给她一份新的工作,而且这份工作比她在军队的工作还好.在过去的军事分支服务期间发生了很多事情.我认识她还是她在军队工作的时候.她是8个州的货车运输业协商区域的管理者.那会我在达拉斯跑肉品包装工具的运输.
![](http://i2.wp.com/fossforce.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/anatomy.jpg?w=525)
Nicky 和我在 2006 年成为了好朋友.她很外向,并且有很强的好奇心,她几乎走过每个运输商走的路线.一个星期五晚上我们在灯光下有一场很激烈的争论,像这样的 达 30 分钟的争论在我们之间并不少见.或许这并不比油漆一个球场省事,但是气氛还是可以控制的住的,感觉就像是一个很恐怖的游戏.在这次争论的时候她问到我是否可以修复她的电脑.
她知道我为了一些贫穷的孩子能拥有他们自己的电脑做出的努力,当她抱怨她的电脑很慢的时候,我提到了参加 Bill Gate 的 401k 计划[译注:这个计划是为那些为内部收益代码做过贡献的人们提供由税收定义的养老金账户Nicky 说这是了解 Linux 的最佳时间.
她的电脑相当好,它是一个带有 Dell 19 显示器的华硕电脑.不好的是,当不需要一些东西的时候,这个 Windows 电脑会强制性的显示所有的工具条和文本菜单.我们把电脑上的文件都做了备份之后就开始安装 Linux 了.我们一起完成了安装,并且我确信她知道了如何分区.不到一个小时,她的电脑上就有了一个漂亮的 PCLinuxOS 桌面.
她会经常谈论她使用新系统的方法,系统看起来多么漂亮.她不曾提及的是,她几乎被她面前的井然有序的漂亮桌面吸引.她说她的桌面带有漂亮的"微光".这是我在安装系统期间特意设置的.我每次在安装 Linux 的时候都会进行这样的配置.我想让每个 Linux 用户的桌面都配置这个漂亮的微光.
大概第一周左右,她给我打电话或者发邮件问了一些常规的问题,但是最主要的问题还是她想知道怎样保存她打开的 Office 文件OpenOffice以至于她的同事也可以读这些文件教一个人使用 Linux 或者 Open/LibreOffice 的时候最重要的就是教她保存文件.大多数用户仅仅看到第一个提示,只需要手指轻轻一点就可以以打开文件模式( Open Document Format )保存.
大约一年前或者更久,一个高中生说他没有通过期末考试,因为教授不能打开他写着论文的文件.这引来不能决定谁对谁错的读者的激烈评论.这个高中生和教授都不知道这件事该怪谁.
我知道一些大学教授甚至每个人都能够打开一个 ODF 文件.见鬼,很少有像微软这样优秀的公司,我想 Microsoft Office 现在已经能打开 ODT 或者 ODF 文件了.我也不能确保,毕竟我最近一次用 Microsoft Office 是在 2005 年.
甚至在困难时期,当 Microsoft 很受欢迎并且很热衷于为使用他们系统的厂商的企业桌面上安装他们自己的软件的时候,我和一些使用 Microsoft Office 的用户的产品生意和合作从来没有出现过问题,因为我会提前想到可能出现的问题并且不会有侥幸心理.我会发邮件给他们询问他们正在使用的 Office 版本.这样,我就可以确保以他们能够读写的格式保存文件.
说到 Nicky ,她花了很多时间学习她的 Linux 系统.我很惊奇于她的热情.
当人们意识到所有的使用 Windows 的习惯和工具都要被抛弃的时候,学习 Linux 系统也会很容易.甚至在我们谈论第一次用的系统时,我查看这些系统的桌面或者下载文件夹大多都找不到 some_dodgy_file.exe 这样的文件.
在我们通常讨论这些文件的时候,我们也会提及关于更新的问题.很长时间我都不会在一台电脑上反复设置去完成多种程序的更新和安装.比如 Mint ,它没有带有 Synaptic [译注:一个 Linux 管理图像程序包]的完整更新方法,这让我失去兴趣.但是我们的老成员 dpkg 和 apt 是我们的好朋友,聪明的领导者已经得到肯定并且认识到命令行看起来不是那么舒服,同时欢迎新的用户加入.
我很生气,强烈反对机器对 Synaptic 的削弱,最后我放弃使用它.你记得你第一次使用的 Linux 发行版吗?记得你什么时候在 Synaptic 中详细查看大量的软件列表吗?记得你怎样开始检查并标记每个你发现的很酷的程序吗?你记得有多少这样的程序开始都是使用"lib"这样的文件吗?
是的,我也是。我安装并且查看了一些新的安装程序,直到我发现那些库文件是应用程序的螺母和螺栓,而不是应用程序本身.这就是为什么这些聪明的开发者在 Linux Mint 和 Ubuntu 之后创造了聪明、漂亮和易于使用的应用程序的安装程序Synaptic 仍然是我们的老大,但是对于一些后来者,安装像 lib 文件这样的方式需要打开大量的文件夹,很多这样的事情都会导致他们放弃使用这个系统.在新的安装程序中,这些文件会被放在一个文件夹中甚至不会展示给用户.总之,这也是该有的解决方法.
除非你要改变应该支持的需求.
现在的 Linux 发行版中有很多有用的软件,我也很感谢这些开发者,因为他们,我的工作变得容易.不是每一个 Linux 新用户都像 Nicky 这样富有热情.她相当不错的完成了安装过程并且达到了忘我的状态.像她这样极具热情的毕竟是少数.大多数新的 Linux 用户也就是在需要的时候才这样用心.
很不错,他们都是要教自己的孩子使用 Linux 的人.
