Mark,
This looks like a good structure to start with.
Personally, I would like coverage of the following, but this is just me :-):
1. Installing gNewSense
>>> Partitioning using multiple disks (Advanced section?)
2. Introduction to the desktop environment
1. GNOME
2. KDE
>>> 3. Othe desktops/ window managers, for lower spec machines
(fvwm/ wmaker/etc)
3. Basic Settings
1. Users
2. Networking and Internet
1. Dialup
2. LAN and Broadband
3. WAN ?
4. Using gNewSense
1. The Internet
1. Browsing the Internet
2. Emails
3. Instant Messaging
2. Productivity
1. OpenOffice.org
2. The GIMP
>>> 3. Importing photos from a USB attached camera?
3. Adding and Removing Programs
>>> 1. Using dselect. apt-get and then GUI add/remove apps
4. Changing the Appearance of gNewSense
1. Desktop
2. Screensavers
3. Themes
5. Advanced
>>> Security hardening....use of Bastille and then Tiger.
They are things off the top of my head. As it's a wiki, we can always
come up with more later, but it's a good idea to map as much as we
can, to start with.
Cheers,
Chris.
