Linux super-duper admin tools: lsof

[Mrkvonic]

Hi all,

Let us be geeky for a moment or two. I've written a long tutorial introducing the lsof (list open files) utility, a powerful, versatile tool for solving all kinds of system problems; includes a dandy practical example.

You should read this if you're quarter-serious about Linux.

Great tutorial,

I've been on Linux Mint 9 far more often than Windows.
I'd be on Linux 100% of the time if I didn't need Skype to do a radio
program.

There's Skype for Linux, as well ...

Yup there is but isn't anywhere near in development as the Windows versions.
Sometimes Linux apps gets the shaft. It uses too much cpu with pulseaudio.
