Supposedly DVL has video lessons that go over the exercises in this training distro. I tried to download these but could not find them. It looks like the DVL folks have gone professional and are just selling training now?

Does anyone know if there are still free videos for this training distribution? Or is it just a tool for their training programs now?

I appreciate your reply and I am glad you knew where to go and what to do to just get working on it, but for me, the whole reason I was interested in it was that this distro was supposed to be some self contained learning tool with lessons, videos, etc.

Unfortunately I don't see anything like that on boot up or through a cursory poking around of the Live CD.

All I see on their website is a link to some certification that they now offer and all old links I see on the web to their previous videos no longer work.

This is a shame. I heard really good things about this distro as a learning tool but I guess all of the hype was back when they were more about spreading knowledge rather than making money.

I's agree with Ketchup.

I think you might find older versions to be more helpful.  I downloaded, and will look at, the latest version, today, to see what's there.  I know older ones were much more 'beginner-friendly.'

In the meantime, let us know if you find more, as well.  Additionally, if you want to do some learning, get the de-ice labs, etc, and start playing with those, as well.  If you have some extra pocket money, the book Thomas Wilhelm wrote is great, and contains them, as well as some good lesson material, for only about $80 us...  Much cheaper than many of the other possible options you'd have (while obviously still not 'free' as you'd like with the DVL...)
