If you want some less low-level stuff, try the Linux Programmers Guide (there's a link from "Projects" at www.linux.org)

Depending how low-level you want to go, there's a book called something like "The Linux Kernel", which deascribes in depth the inner workings (quite litereally) of Linux.
"Beginning Linux Programming" is supposed to be reasonably good. There is a review for it on slashdot at http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=99/08/02/1334252&mode=nested You might try that to get yourself familiarized to Linux. If you're looking for a game-programming specific book for Linux, then you are probably out of luck.

Hello I'm pretty new to the linux community and looking for a short description of the internal workings of the OS and some general programming info about the unix fundametals such as sockets, forking etc.
I've done a lot of programming in C and ASM for DOS and are now moving on to a 'real' 32 bit OS.
If someone have read any good books (sites, homepages or whatever) regarding this. Please give me the url or title of the book.
I'm not looking for information on setting up linux, etc. Just some C/ASM programming info.
