Try all (or most) of the different desktop interfaces - (XFCE, LXDE, GNOME, Unity, RatPoison, Mate, etc.).

Learn shell scripting (Unix shell such as Bash).

To become a Linux master, you should learn the following (or at least try them and get a basic understanding). I think an Ubuntu beginner would want to Apt-Get Install and not know about the Pacman -S thing.

Manjaro isn't to difficult, but it does not have the familiar Debian command line. I will also suggest avoiding Arch Linux or even Manjaro. Also, avoid FreeBSD or other BSDs which are actually Unix and not Linux. I think it will just get you really confused with the different command line. I think the Linux Mint with Xfce desktop is nice for low power systems.įor a beginner, I would suggest avoiding things based on Slackware or RedHat. Linux Mint is worth a look to and might offer an Ubuntu user more interesting desktops. Command Line should be familiar but with a different desktop experience. Also, because Ubuntu is built on Debian, the command line shouldn't be radically different.Īnother distro the OP might find interesting is MEPIS Linux which is also built on Debian and includes the KDE desktop. Someone wanting to learn could try adding different things to it such as the Wifi drivers, Flashplayer, or even different Desktop Environments. It makes sense to me because Ubuntu is built on Debian so it would keep things simple to stick with the Debian distro family.Īlso, I think plain Debian would be more minimal.

If the OP wants to try other Distros, I'd suggest Debian or other Debian based Distros.
