Ubuntu-AU Brisbane Release Party - with photos!
Good morning/afternoon/evening Ubuntu-AU'ers, After pestering everyone else to let us know how their release party went I thought I'd write you all a quick note to let you know how the Brisbane release party went on Saturday afternoon. Thanks to everyone who came along and enjoyed the pancakes (or just the company), it was good to see some real people instead of names on emails or IRC nicknames on screens. I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say the food was delicious. The Macadamia pancakes adorned with cream, ice cream and maple syrup was not so great for my diet but still worth it all the same. We were able to talk about all things Ubuntu, all things computers and play around with all our different android and Ubuntu devices. It was great to see a good mix of people from all different backgrounds able to enjoy socialising over Ubuntu. Thanks to Christian for taking some photos (I had my camera there but I'm a poor shot so as soon as someone else started snapping I was breathing a little easier) and with his permission I have uploaded them to flickr and added them to the Ubuntu-AU group available at [1]. I've put a note on my mug but I didn't want to do this for everyone without their permission so feel free to add a note for yourself so we can see who everyone is. I look forward to hearing how everyone else's release parties went.

Re: Sincere apologies - Perth release party

I was working today and my work vehicle chose to follow Murphys law and pick the worst possible time to not start. I was packing up and about to head back to base then to the cafe at 3pm when I turned the key and heard nothing. The battery was stone dead and I wasn't going anywhere. Finally 3 hours later at 6pm the boss finally came out to where I was with a new battery and got me going again. If anyone in Perth would like a cd with Ubuntu 11.04 desktop i386 burnt to it mailed to them contact me and I'll drop it in the post for you. I have 6 discs that I burnt for the release party that may as well go to a good home. -- Regards Nathaniel http://about.me/nathanieloffer These things always happen at the worst times don't they. Did anyone else make it to the cafe for the party (I'm in Brisbane so went to the Brisbane one)?

RE: Evolution E-Mail
I followed the instructions and restarted evolution.. In the bottom bar of the screen it says writing State.ini Does this give any clue ? The program sits there with this message and nothing else happens.

Let's start by scrapping the old stuff (the files in ~/.evolution) and seeing what happens (don't worry, we'll keep a back up of them til we work it out). So, from the terminal: mkdir ~/evobackup mv ~/.evolution ~/evobackup Start evolution again and see what happens.. If it starts, check to see if all your expected data is there.. If it's not. We'll take the next step. Jared -- ubuntu-au mailing list ubuntu-au@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-au

Cool, ordered. That should save me 700Mb of bandwidth for this month I've been downloading betas and other distros :-( Chris From: peter baker jellyw...@gmail.com To: ubuntu-au@lists.ubuntu.com Sent: Mon, 2 May, 2011 9:50:26 AM Subject:11.04 now available through www.ubuntu.net.au hey fellow ubuntu lovers goto www.ubuntu.net.au to get your ubunutu 32/64, kubuntu 32/64 and ubuntu netbook cds. $3 each including shipping anwhere in oz peter-- ubuntu-au mailing list ubuntu-au@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-au
