Where: Jean Vollum Natural Capital Center, 721 NW Ninth Ave Portland, Oregon 97209 (on NW 10th Ave between Irving and Johnson) Willamette University space on the 2nd floor. When: Sunday, May 18, 2025, 1pm-5pm
PLUG volunteers historically held a monthly clinic to help one and all with their Linux (and other *NIX) computer problems on the third Sunday of every month from 1PM to 5PM.
After a 5 year hiatus, the PLUG Clinic returns this month on May 18th, from 1pm-5pm, at Willamette University's space on the 2nd floor of the Ecotrust Building. Thank you Willamette University, for hosting us!
This month, as a special treat, recent PLUG speaker Clayton Craft from the PostmarketOS project <https://postmarketos.org/> should be available to help you install it on your supported or semi-supported device. "The Linux distribution for mobile devices and beyond…" Should be fun!
Enter the building on the 10th Avenue side. If the outside door is locked, you should be able to enter through the Hot Lips Pizza. There is a stairway to the second floor. If the gate is locked, look for a PLUG Clinic notice, it will have a phone number you can SMS to have someone let you in. Also, the elevator should work.
Volunteer helpers are as desirable as helpees. Helping is fun and rewarding. If you've ever helped out at a PLUG Clinic before, come checkout the space! I think I first participated at the old Riverdale School in the early 2000s. Oh, if possible, bring some install media for your favorite distribution. John Jason Jordan used to have a whole portfolio of install media for various distributions, but he is sadly no longer with us.
We are informed that the off-street parking area (about 20-30 spaces) along the 10th Avenue side is open to the public on weekends.
Special thanks go to Willamette University's Calvin Deutschbein and Hillary Patterson for helping to make this happen!
