Click on the \button{Add} to add a new signature. \application{Evolution} should then open the \window{Edit Signature} window. Give your signature a name, and enter the contents of your signature in the big text field below.

By default, new messages will be sent in ``Plain Text'' mode. This means that no formatting or graphics will be shown to the recipient, but the message is least likely to be rejected or displayed illegibly to the recipients. If you know that your recipient uses a contemporary computer and a modern email program, you can send them messages that include formatting. To switch to this mode, click the drop-down list button on the left side directly above the text field for the message contents. Change the selection from ``Plain Text'' to ``\acronym{HTML}'' to enable advanced formatting. When using \acronym{HTML} mode, a new toolbar should appear right under the mode selection that will allow you to perform advanced advanced font styling and message formatting.

If you've added the contact in error, click their name in the list on the right, and click on the \button{Remove} button. When you are finished picking contacts, click \button{Close} to return to the composing screen.

Need to get 683kB of archives. After this operation, 24.6kB disk space will be freed. Do you want to continue [Y/n]?

\marginnote{Notice the sudo command before the apt-get command. In most cases it will be necessary to use sudo when installing software, as you will be modifying protected parts of your system. Many of the commands we will be using from here on require root access, so expect to see sudo appearing frequently.}

\notecallout[Note]{The device (/dev/sda1, /dev/sda2, etc.) we are looking for is identified by the word ``Linux'' in the System column. Modify the instructions below if necessary, replacing /dev/sda1 with the name of your Linux device.}

This output means that your system (Linux, on which Ubuntu is based) is installed on device /dev/sda1, but your computer is booting to /dev/sda2 (where Windows is located). We need to rectify this by telling the computer to boot to the Linux device instead.

When installed on netbook computers from Asus \dash such as the EeePC \dash Ubuntu does not always enable all of the computer's built-in components, including the keyboard shortcut keys and the wireless Internet adapter.

Linux distributions can be divided into two broad families: the Debian family and the Red Hat family. Each family is named for a distribution on which subsequent distributions are based. For example, ``Debian'' refers to both the name of a distribution as well as the family of distributions derived from Debian. Ubuntu is part of the Debian family of distributions, as are Linux Mint, Xandros, and Crunchbang Linux. Distributions in the Red Hat family include Fedora, OpenSUSE, and Mandriva.

Ubuntu is one of several popular operating systems based on Linux (an open source operating system). While other versions of Linux, or ``distributions,'' may look different from Ubuntu at first glance, they share similar characteristics because of their common roots.\marginnote{A distribution, or ``distro,'' is a operating system made from open source programs, bundled together to make them easier to install and use.}

The Ubuntu Server Edition is an operating system optimized to perform multi-user tasks when installed on servers.\marginnote{A \textbf{server} is a computer that's been configured to manage, or ``serve,'' files many people wish to access.} Such tasks include file sharing and website or email hosting.
