Hello! I'd like to know what kind of questions could be asked around here and in what form. What I mean exactly, can I post a guides/howtos for resolving known problems that linux users may experience, frequently asked questions? Like "How to configure ssh with keys" or something like that... BTW I like this idea of LE(as we probably will soon call LinuxExchange), it's nice! Thanks, Jeremy :) asked 13 Apr '10, 23:14 Web31337 |
Any question pertaining to Linux and Open Source can be asked here at LinuxExchange. Guides and HOWTO's however should not be posted here, as this is a Q&A site only (unlike LQ). You should post guides and HOWTO's either in the LQ Tutorials section or at the LQ Wiki. --jeremy answered 15 Apr '10, 13:19 jeremy ♦♦ Okay, can I "ask" and then "answer" own question? Or should I ask and let others make an answer instead?

If you think you can add value to the site by asking and answering a question, you should feel free to do so. --jeremy

I do not see anything wrong with that. Just make sure it is tagged properly and such. Also consider dropping your HowTos off at the LQWiki: answered 13 Apr '10, 23:49 Sky.Crawler Yeah I do always look after formatting... the question is how to make howtos here? Well, maybe I shoud just ask and answer own questions or just ask and let others reply :)

Go to stackoverflow and you will get the idea :D answered 14 Apr '10, 04:09 Derulz never used stackoverflow sites before... signed up today. What bugs me is there is no way for users to communicate as in PM/etc... :(

LE is meant strictly to provide answers to questions in a defined Q&A format. For a more community style conversational format, you want LinuxQuestions.org. --jeremy

Should Android questions be asked here or should they be redirected to ForceClose for usage and StackOverflow for development? answered 28 Apr '10, 17:45 Amos "Any question pertaining to Linux and Open Source can be asked here at LinuxExchange." Android is both Linux and Open Source, so is certainly on topic here at LinuxExchange.
