[ubuntu-art] Intro
Hi, My name is Jarred Williams. I am a college student studying software engineering wanting to eventually work my way into GUI design. Ive been a fan of linux and Ubuntu for a couple of years now (although I've only had a computer for a year and a half). If there is anything i can do to help by making graphics or maybe even drawing up interface designs I would be more than happy to do so. I also have some suggestions that could make things a little more coherent and intuitive if anyone would like to listen.

Hey man, Here's some info perfect for you: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Documentation/Backgrounds Before each new release, there is often a competition where you can submit pictures which could make it into the default background pictures, watch sites such as omgubuntu as they often promote the competition.

Hi Everyone, My name is Abhinav Upadhyay and I am a final year engineering student from Lucknow. I have been Ubuntu for about 4 years now. I really love it and promote it wholeheartedly wherever I can. My contribution to the Open Source: I haven't done much, but I am proud of whatever I did. I have contributed an Apache module, under the Apache license, it is hosted on github. I developed it for a company ( http://hover.in) during my internship. Besides this, most recently, I submitted two patches to the Ubuntu community, one of which has been merged as well. I would like to be a proud member of the Ubuntu Indian Team.

While I currently use debian as my main distro i have a 2nd PC that i have installed ubuntu 8.04 on, and have downloaded the 8.10 and booted this up as a live cd to have a look at, from what I have seen it looks very nice I have also designed some ubuntu posters which are at www.ubuntu.com under downloads then in a ubuntu folder, these are free to use, so feel free to download and print off, and more importantly perhaps improve on, i have used graphics from the ubuntu website to help me design the posters as the site has screen shots which helped me illistrate what ubuntu looks like. Look forward to taking part in local events, and local advocacy Paul Greetings Paul, Never mind the posters, did you bring any Nurofen? ;-) I think you'll find that quite a few Ubuntu users are also Debian users (not surprisingly perhaps), so you'll be in good company. By the way, did you mean to use the ubuntu.com address, or should that have been an address of your own? Roger Answered my own question. I found your posters at the site that corresponds to your mail address. Good work :) Roger -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

It would seem that there are a fair few Ubuntu users in Devon now, myself included! :-) 2008/11/1 Rob Beard [EMAIL PROTECTED] Paul Sutton wrote: Hi I am paul, from Paignton, South Devon and decided to join the list so I could help promote Linux and other OSS better by being able to hopefully be part of a wider more co-ordinated efforts, rather than trying to do this on my own.

[ubuntu-in] intro
Hi, I am Kumar from Mumbai and I was tired of using Windows so asked a friend if he could help me install Ubuntu but i find it takes 7 minutes to load and* I am surprised why it takes so long*. I hope you will guide me a fresher to overcome this. Is there any system by which i can have my questions answered by mail / phone ? How many people use Ubuntu in Mumbai ? Is there a method to learn Ubuntu ? Regards Kumar -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
Re: [ubuntu-in] intro
I am not in Mumbai but I think I can help. What is your system configuration? Ubuntu needs atleast 256 MB of ram to run decently (as far as I know).

There are indeed a lot of Mumbaikars in this mailing list using Ubuntu, and a lot of others will also be able to answer your questions. Please feel free to ask your questions here. The speed with which any GNU/Linux distribution loads depends a bit upon your computer configuration as well. Can you please let us know your computer configuration and how you have partitioned your hard disk to install Ubuntu. Did you first try with an Ubuntu Live CD before installing it on your computer? If so, how was it from the Live CD? Request: Please do not send mails to this list as HTML, please use plain-text mode to send your mails.

Re: [ubuntu-in] intro
I am Kumar from Mumbai and I was tired of using Windows so asked a friend if he could help me install Ubuntu but i find it takes 7 minutes to load and I am surprised why it takes so long. Sometimes Ubuntu 8.04 starts disk checking during start-up, you can cancel it by pressing escape if that happens. Is there any system by which i can have my questions answered by mail / phone ? How many people use Ubuntu in Mumbai ? You've come to the right place, all your questions would be answered in this community via email. I'd also suggest you to use google extensively when you're learning something new, it's the quickest way to get answers to your questions. Is there a method to learn Ubuntu ? There is no better method that doing it yourself, you might mess it up a couple of times but you'll never forget what you learn this way Regards, Hardeep Singh -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

First of all can you tell us your hardware specifications like RAM, motherboard, processor, graphics card, etc. Is there any system by which i can have my questions answered by mail / phone ? Well this is one of them. How many people use Ubuntu in Mumbai ? Too difficult to enumerate that. Is there a method to learn Ubuntu ? Yes, use it.

Martin Fitzpatrick wrote: Welcome to the list alan, Thanks I realise just now that my recent presence on the gmane.linux.ubuntu.user.british is mirrored anyway. I have just joined the list and hope to be helping at LinuxWorld. I am a recent user of Kubuntu, having started linux three years ago with suse. I really appreciate the Ubuntu approach and the energetic and friendly efforts to spread the distro. What prompted the switch from SUSE to Ubuntu? I demo a number of distros, and was originally inhibited by the ubuntu version(s) 5.10 text based installer, although otherwise I was attracted by the good community feel of the ubuntu family of products. When 6.06 appeared with a more gui installer, then I began looking more seriously. Suse 9.3 through 10.0 is a very comfortable distro, and has good internet based (and retail pack) support, and I like/d the corporate feel anyway, with its implication of longevity. Along with the Ubuntu community positiveness and energy, there is a good drive to spread Ubuntu. Suse promised a 'lizard blizard' and has made some moves, but the 5 CDs and the novell licence, although not being an inhibitor for small scale installs, make it harder to attract a mass 'spreading' activity, except via more corporate channels. Ubuntu etc is free by policy. A single CD is very convenient - and a live CD gives two birds with one stone, and there is windows FOSS things on it also. The shipit facility and the CD pack is attractive, the pack design gives a 'retail' feel to things - competing in the realm which 'customers' actually understand. All these aspects are strategic bullseyes. Oh, and of course, the distro is a good well balanced one. The updates facility is very competent, while the suse 10.1 updates facility is getting pretty slow and unattractive, I get an impression of lack of focus there. I started out on that (for a brief 5-10minutes before the install died), then Redhat. While Ubuntu is far from perfect it certainly doesn't reduce me to despair as often as the alternatives! I'm including Windows in that too btw. I don't count windows. There seem to be a fair % of people (experienced users) trying to escape it as I did. Suse is still a comfortable distro to use, and I find pclinuxos very appealing, although it has not yet gained enough following for support of newcomers to linux I think, that can take a lot of attention in support forums. I run (mostly single handed) the Infopoint table at the Bracknell Computer fairs monthly if I am available. The table has rapidly become a defacto Ubuntu Kubuntu distribution point, other distros are not so attractive to newcomers - who are the main attenders. What success do you have handing out CDs Around 10 or 15 per day to people who approach and come to discuss maybe more sometimes. and do what sort of feedback do you get? It's always good to hear people are having success introducing people to OSS The initial measure is in what they choose - a retail looking pack is far more attractive than a home made copy with no colour pack. (btw even colour packs containing home made checked iso burns would be attractive...). For my part I am glad to reccommend Kubuntu to a windows escapee because of the basic distro and not least the community and its obvious promise for the future. It took me personally a couple of years to start a linux try seriously, and a couple after that to feel at all confident. Unless there is a close local group to hold peoples hands, it could take some time. I have had few return to discuss it yet, once per month is not close enough contact to get a feel in a few months, I would like a local venue to offer a local install fest and club, but -another story. - in many ways the individual stuff is where the biggest impact can be had. I am convinced that is a basic truth, unless linux is pre installed by dell etc for popular use. I had first hand experience of the then windows 3.1 being chosen in preference to OS/2 by team leader end users in direct contravention to a main IT policy in the company. I had the discomfort to chair the decision, and was visited by our company heavy gang but the users still won. OS/2 was a better more stable os and we used it for control systems. The reason for OS/2 unpopularity was simply that all the end users had windows at home! Do you get into much post-introduction support? Not yet locally but I have a small yahoogroup set up awaiting any very local users who are not yet confident to contact a full LUG (which can be a bit daunting). Almost all the computer fair Infopoint activity so far has been with people who have never really installed linux (yet) but are encouraged to be actually *seeing* it. I note that these have decided to investigate a changeed OS first, then come and talk. Many others are yet uninterested, or have not yet noticed. -- alan c -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk
