Been using LL for a while now and I've never found a basic keystroke bibliography like the one that appears when Ubuntu is started. If one exists for LL it should be included in the help manual. A lot of nix key combinations work but new users and users coming from Windows would have no way of knowing what works and what doesn't. I think it should be in the help manual somewhere. Haven't found it yet. If I missed it perhaps you know where it is.

Duh. I need more coffee. Thanks Jerry. I tried searching the help manual for "key strokes" and nothing came up. Maybe should add a link? Most people call them keyboard shortcuts or key strokes.
Ooops tried "keyboard shortcuts" search term and it came up. I'm going for coffee now.
I ran this beta in Oracle and in gnome-boxes and it is faster on my slower old Dell in gnome-boxes than Oracle on my faster newer HP. 4gmem compared to 8gmem. For most people for testing boxes may be the way to go I guess from Ubu or Deb. Honestly there is no lag at all even with all the ads. It fetches my e-mail faster from the web than the base Ubu LTS that it's running in.

Searching for 'Keyboard Shortcuts' or 'Keyboard' will find it.
