I am setting up a new Linux device and I'm relatively new to Linux, what are the benefits of using apt for things? is there any other command that is better than apt?
apt is the default package manager on Debian derivatives (like Ubuntu). There are other alternatives like yum (which is the default on the RH family of distros like Fedora). A discussion of "better" or "worse" won't make much sense to you if you're new to Gnu/Linux.

I'n looking to download a linux distro that has nothing but a terminal, simply boot up the machine into a console/terminal that runs sh/bash.
I want it to test some shell script and I really don't need a desktop environment because I want it to perform as best as possible.
If anyone knows anything like this let me know thanks!
I tried to look it up on google and YT and all I find is some lightweight distributions but with desktops.
I recommend you Arch Linux. It's a lightweight and DIY distro. You don't need a desktop environment to install it on your system

Can anyone tell me when the cassandra20 or dsc20 RPM packages will be available on the Datastax yum repository located at http://rpm.datastax.com/community/noarch/ ?
I tried googling for third-party repos but nobody seems to have C* 2.0.0 yet.
Thanks in advance!
It's now available here http://planetcassandra.org/Download/StartDownload (and the usual repository). Please use the new dsc20 package name for apt and yum.
We are working on it. Hopefully tomorrow, kinda depends on how qa goes.

I would want to install a free Linux OS in my laptop. I am not a techie. I am looking for Linux OS which will have inbuilt features for Fn(Function) keys. Please suggest me if you know any particular Linux OS with these features.
This OS have a laptop version. Easy to use, and supports the newest hardwares:
http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop
There are so many choices. Ubuntu is the defacto first distro, although I don't really care for it ever since they went to Unity and Gnome 3. I would rather use Mint with Cinnamon.
A good start is to look at something like Linux Watch http://distrowatch.com/ and see what distros sound good to you, then burn the live disk and check it out. If you like it you can then install it.

wasn't too sure where to ask this. I am just trying to find which Linux OS's or past OS's had the Linux Kernel 2.6.32. Just need to know for compatibility issues with some modules I am working on.
Thanks in advance!
debian squeeze currently uses this kernel.
