Re: [ubuntu-uk] Ubuntu UK Happy Hour (Bracknell SHP)

The list of venues we have proposed so far is here: http://ubuntu-uk.org/happy-hour/ Along with a nice map that will update with the route as we stagger from city to city. If there isn't a pub on the list near you then get back to me with a pub name and postcode to add to the list. The order is not set in stone, I want to rearrange it so they bounce about all over the place so everyone gets one within reach every few months. The first meeting is on the 22nd September, that is three weeks from now, at the Cask in Pimlico turn up any time from 7ish. You can optionally put your name down here so we have an idea of numbers (the pub tweeted that they would set some tables aside for us) http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-uk/1257/detail/ Alan May I offer the possibility of a location in Bracknell - South Hill Park Atrium Bar (formerly 'Terrace' Bar). (It has nominal wifi which is not good enough yet to advertise). My thoughts are that although the bar itself is ok, and the outside terrace is good too, the whole location - South Hill Park Arts Centre complex (SHP) - is a community resource, at the upper end of the culture scale. So future possibilities may include Ogg Camp or similar events?? The grounds are very pleasant, there is a small cinema (60 seats), the Wilde theatre, parking would normally be easy (builders clogging it up just now) and free. I recently really enjoyed an exceptionally good open air 'As You Like It' by the Globe company. SHP has recently used Lottery funding for work around the exterior, however, local funding past the next three years is in doubt, so there is much blue sky thinking about the future. Historically, SHP was a country house at one time owned I think, by the Ferranti family, and the BBC, and was part of the informal 'Nabobs of Berkshire' culture, where wealthy people with associations with India built grand properties around Berkshire. www.southhillpark.org.uk www.southhillpark.org.uk/478/hire-us/private-functions.html (see 'Gallery' photos) -- alan cocks Ubuntu user -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
[ubuntu-uk] IPv6 RA Not Working
Hi I have a Cisco router on my network that is doing RA for IPv6 assignment. If I plug the ethernet cable into my Ubuntu 11.04 netbook I get a IPv6 address assigned. If I plug the same cable into my desktop machine also running 11.04 I get eth0: no IPv6 routers present. Anyone got any ideas why it works in my netbook but not on desktop machine?

Anyone got any ideas why it works in my netbook but not on desktop machine? Sods law just got it working by enabling ufw. So anyone know why RA doesn't work if ufw is disabled but does work if ufw is enabled? I have IPV6=yes in /etc/default/ufw BTW That's presumably the answer but I don't know why unless IPv6 support is compiled into ufw. I don't have ufw running at all on either my desktop or laptop (11.04) and it's set to no in /etc/default/ufw and IPv6 works fine. FWIW I have radacct running on a Dreamplug running Ubuntu 9.04 with a Sixxs tunnel and it just works. No help I know but I'm quite proud of it :) s/ -- Twitter: @sfgreenwood Is this your sanderling? -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

You don't need to run ufw to use IPv4 so why would you need it to run IPv6? FWIW I have radacct running on a Dreamplug running Ubuntu 9.04 with a Sixxs tunnel and it just works.
