Hi all, monthly notice, February 5, Happy New Year.
Wednesday night is the Sydenham Freenix* workshop, 7.30-9.30pm (first Wednesday of each month, February to December), at the South Learning Centre <http://www.library.christchurch.org.nz/South/>, rear door of South Christchurch Library, 66 Colombo Street, Cashmere.
We use the 33-computer suite of i5s and overhead projector there, for BYO thumbdrive or liveCD distro show & tell, knowledge exchange, troubleshooting & tuition. Notebooks are the easiest demo systems to bring. GNU/Linux Mint, Point Linux and Ubuntu variants, 12.04-13.10, are the main distros we currently display on the lab machines. If you require a DVD or CD burnt you can request it there or by off-list reply please.
Technical presentation space - open format for talk offerings. Venue familiarisation for http://www.SoftwareFreedomDay.org annual event.
Workshop is also a chance to meet other *nix users, have installation questions answered & resolved, get on-line security tips, etc.
Last year this evening didn't run, because it was Waitangi Day. Now that it's the day before, the choice is yours whether to attend or not.
All welcome.
