I did 13 out of 20, not bad for a enduser IMO. How well will some of you guys do?

Not sure this is correct.

Question 8: Which of the following companies has not released open source Linux drivers for its graphics hardware?

16 out of 20, not bad for an accountant…By the way, I like the fact that the quiz does not require java script to work.

You got 14 of 20 correct.
Your score: 70%

19/20… got caught on #14.

There are some questionable questions though… but I answered with what they
wanted…

I found that as well, some things like “which one of these is not like
the others” without answering the question “in what way?” isn’t a good
way to make a quiz. :slight_smile:

My first thought was “poor”.
Not really much ‘admin’ material there.

It was more of a “trivia” test really.

Yeah, that’s also true - it’s more of a “test your Linux knowledge”
quiz. And even then, some of the questions aren’t about Linux per se,
but rather about the history of Linux.

That’s what I thought too.
