I got 10/10 and I'm a total Linux n000b so I don't know what it shows.

Linux IQ test

You are LINCURIOUS
(7 of 10 questions correct)

You may have even used the Linux OS before but you're not a supergeek about it.

i use linux, but i don't use it that heavily.

Yeah, most of that stuff is just in the first chapter of just about every linux book ever made. As a side note, the Linux Administration Handbook > * :)

LOL...I know! it's more of a history test than a real linux quiz.

Evi and the rest wrote a linux specific book

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0130084662/103-3672145-6383803

it is an ok book but if you are really interested in learning linux I would recommend this one:

You are a LINUX MASTER
(8 of 10 questions correct)

You may be the type to compile your own kernel. You're certainly no novice. We have a feeling you'll enjoy ZDNet's Linux IT area.

I have a feeling I won't.

Apparently, with 9/10 questions correct, I'm a Linux Master.
However, they're just general knowledge / trivia questions. Nothing about compiling a kernel or mountpoints.
