I use gamedev for absolutely anything and everything. If I have a question, I consult google, I consult a book (if I have one), and then I consult gamedev. I even asked (and got a terrific answer) if anyone knew of a pillowcase cooling device and got a great answer. However whenever I delve into a big project, I like to have a forum dedicated to that specific topic as my main consultant. That latest topic is the phenomenon known as Linux. Don't get me wrong, you guys on this forum are great. I've already figured out a ton using your help, and will continue to do so. However, I'd like to have access to a forum as active as gamedev but geared towards linux as to broaden the number of responses to my questions. So my question is, what is everyone's favorite forum? One of my favorite parts about gamedev is that I can ask a question, go make a snack, and 20 minutes later have an answer. So what is the equivalent forum for linux users? I tried www.linuxforums.org last night, and already have 2 responses to 2 questions, and I like the board's layout and features, but I'd like to know if there are any better forums? Thanks in advance!

The Ars Technica Linux forum is pretty good. So are the Gentoo Forums (doesn't have to be Gentoo specific).

I've also heard a lot of good things about the Ubuntu Forums but I haven't used it.

I don't know if it is the *best* forum, I haven't really checked around, but http://www.linuxquestions.org/ is pretty good IMO. They have specific forums for each distro, and in fact hosts the de facto official forum for my favorite distro, Slackware.
