For starters, Corel is based on Debian GNU/Linux and much of what
applies to Debian will likely apply to Corel.  You might wish
to poke around the debian-user mailing list archives over at
http://www.debian.org and see what might be there.  That list
doesn't provide Corel specific support, although there are a
few Corel users on the list.  I do recall Corel having some
newsgroups setup at one time, but I'm not sure if they are still
publicly available.

My guess is that if you spend time with Debian documentation
(especially that for Slink, a.k.a. Debian 2.1) you may be able
to work out most things from that.

HTH,
