Newbie to Linux & MYSQL

Hi:

I am new to both Linux and MYSQL. To try and ease the transition I
purchased Linspire and Click and Run (CNR). Thanks to CNR I have
downloaded and installed (I think) the following; MYSQL Server, MYSQL
Control Center, PHP4, PHP4-MYSQL, APACHE.

When I look at http://localhost I see the placeholder page which leads
me to believe that Apache has been installed. The MYSQL Console Manager
pops up a window that says MYSQLCC Regiser Server. I haven't been able
to find any documentation using Google so I am a bit at a loss to know
what to do. I would like to get started learning more about MYSQL, PHP,
Linux, and Apache. So any ideas would be helpful. I bought a book
called Sams Teach Yourself MYSQL in 21 days. It does not jive with the
screens I am looking at.

Thanks in Advance

Bob
