Is it pretty easy to install locally Wordpress on a somewhat old Ubuntu (8.10), without disrupting the version of XAMMP that is already in place?
I want to practice using Wordpress, and also I want to study the internals, the PHP source code, to help learn how to develop.

There are hundreds of examples of free php source codes out there, but the quality is going to vary hugely, so without knowing anything about the web site the source code example is supposed to support, it's hard to assess quickly which examples are of value.

Some have suggested learning by looking at the internals of a CMS (mostly PHP). And Wordpress is probably easier to start with than Drupal. (although I am looking at Drupal books).

By the way, some of the resources I gathered to learn how to install Xamp last December was from Q&A at this user group, you were very helpful a month ago, so thanks for that. I did get the experience last month that some members at comp.lang.php are very helpful.
