Hi
I'm very nooob.

I dumped windows xp the last time it crashed on my machine. Went to a
book store. Bought and installed Red hat enterprise linux.

I used some DOS years ago when it was supported and got around with it.
Since then I have been pointing and clicking and buying software to
remove spyware aware and other attacks from the internet.

I don't miss the toolbar helpers and aware, but finding device drivers
seems to be a problem.

I have a Sharp digital camera that was reconised as a scsi drive in
windows. I got hold of sharpusa.com and was informed that they have no
drivers for anything but windows.

I have a bunch of other devices, but they are not inportant for now.
Anyone know about drivers? I'm getting a lot of confusion in searching
for information.
