Welcome

Welcome to Save The Girhogs - your source for Linux DIY.

Over time I will be adding tips and tutorials covering everything from the basics of getting up and running with a Linux based OS to customising your desktop, installing programs from source code, streaming media to your Xbox 360 and PS3, managing your MP3 player and even *gasp* writing your own code.

I'll be basing my tutorials on Ubuntu Linux. This is simply because Ubuntu is currently the most popular Linux distribution, and therefore this blog will be of help to the largest amount of people. It shouldn't be hard to port the instructions over to any Debian based distribution however, and I'll provide notes on any differences or potential problems where possible.

The first tutorial should be up within the next week, and they will be coming thick and fast after that. So set those bookmarks and tell your friends!!
