Re: commands
Generally, when one speaks of a 'command,' it is in reference to a running such within a console (Konsole in Kubuntu), which is a shell 'outside of' the KDE GUI desktop environment. You would be well served to pick up a reference book. One that I have on hand is Linux in a Nutshell, published by O'Reilly. There are others of course, but this is a good one to have. Then again, you can pick up any of the published books specifically on Ubuntu.Using Kubuntu Linux since March 23, 2007

man - an interface to the on-line reference manuals
SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION
man is the system’s manual pager. Each page argument given to man is
normally the name of a program, utility or function. The manual page
associated with each of these arguments is then found and displayed. A
section, if provided, will direct man to look only in that section of
the manual. The default action is to search in all of the available
sections, following a pre-defined order and to show only the first page
found, even if page exists in several sections.

Re: commands
I like and use the Linux Cookbook also for details on commands. There are some good sites on the web also like....
http://www.linuxcommand.org/
http://linuxreviews.org/beginner/
http://linux.about.com/od/commands/l/blcmd.htm
and many more, a good Google search for "learning Linux commands" works!
FYI - Google runs on Linux also!
