The list of mirror sites of our magazine has grown considerably since our inaugural issue. Please select the site closest to you.

Mailing Lists
There are several mailing lists available for those interested in LinuxFocus announcements/news and also for Linux enthusiasts interested in collaborating with us.

Article Submission
Perhaps one of the most unique characteristics of our magazine is that we publish our articles in several languages. At the moment, we accept articles in English and Spanish. Volunteers in France, Sweden and Turkey are currently preparing French Swedish and Turkish versions of LinuxFocus. Please contact Miguel A Sepulveda for more information and instructions if you would like to contribute.

Patience!
You will notice that there are things still incomplete in our web site, such as a list of companies, links, resources etc.. Everything will eventually get written but for the moment we are still undermanned and short of free time so please be patient. We would be happy to receive your tips, announcements, virtual beer, etc..


Welcome to LinuxFocus
LinuxFocus is an online magazine devoted to supplying the emerging young and active Linux community with tips, information and recent news. This is our fourth month around. Our magazine is published bimonthly; it is only available online and it's free. All articles are copyrighted by their respective authors. Permission is granted to distribute LinuxFocus as long as the proper credits are included.

Our Monographic Approach
The amount of information on Linux is growing rapidly. However, there are only a few online magazines like LinuxFocus, and their approach is to provide mostly an archive of tips and fixes. We would like to do something different. In order to promote the use of Linux and overall user expertise, our magazine will concentrate on providing series of in depth articles concentrating on specific topics. For example, the first series deals with OpenGL. Thanks to recent availability of software and hardware resources for Linux it is possible to perform state-of-the-art 3D programming on a Linux box. The performance of a Linux system with the proper hardware rivals much more expensive SGI stations. Beginning in January, and for a few more issues, we are going to describe just what OpenGL is and go on to cover available libraries, supported hardware, installation techniques, and a series of tutorials on 3D graphics programming using OpenGL. We do not, however, intend to lose novice users, so every issue will also include additional articles on a range of more introductory topics and tips.
