I have downloaded this free set of 80 standard fonts, but I'm not sure how to install it in my Linux box (CentOS 5.4). Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!!
Here's CentOS's font guide.
Basically, you unzip the fonts into /usr/share/fonts/local (creating the folder if necessary), then call fc-cache /usr/share/fonts/local.

I want to lock my desktop with a shell command. How can I do this?
What desktop environment are you using?
Using GNOME:
gnome-screensaver-command -l
Using KDE:
qdbus org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver /ScreenSaver Lock
Using xfce:
xflock4
if you have xscreensaver installer this will work:
xscreensaver -lock
Other then that it is depending on which DE you have.

I would like to configure my environment variables in Ubuntu version and can't find my bashrc.
Where can I find it?
in your home dir, e.g. if you are larix, then it is located in:
/home/larix/.bashrc
You can see it from your filemanager if it shows "hidden" files (if file name starts with "." it is considered as "hidden" file in linux)

I have a question.
I have partition for home with directory "abc". So /home/abc
If I will reinstall Ubuntu and create the same user "abc" my data will be OK? Will this folder be cleared and created again?

Thanks #bobince, if it is a SEPARATE partition, no problem. If you are trying to install over that partition it is going to get wiped.
