    I think I am now past the newbie stage of a GNU/Linux
    ? Debian user.

    I have been using a debian derivative Morphix
    (http://morphix.sourceforge.net/), I have made a few
    mini-mods, written some scripts and even used Linux in
    a rack at work. I can hack a few C, C++ programs and
    knock out some bash and perl scripts. These days I
    pick up my very thumbed Unix beginners book less and
    less.

    So what now, how do I make the step of next from being
    a newbie to working towards Guru level.
    * More, thicker, smaller font, expensive books.
    * Outline tutorials
    * Try kernel hacking, Linux from Scratch ?
    * Just keep using/hacking it, you will learn whats so
    much fun about ssh...
    * Get work to pay for some courses, (Hotels included,
    but no mini-bar, just foo-bar.)

    I would be interested in how other people have made
    the step passed newbie.
