I'd personally prefer London, perhaps because I've been to Birmingham
far too many times on conferences and the like so tend to associate it
more with work

Likewise, London for me.
We don't have to have just the one party, but regional gatherings. One
in Brum, one in London, others wherever Ubunteros ubuntize.

Yo all,
I am TOTALLY up for a launch party. Maybe a launch weekend so I can
get exceedingly drunk and stay over.
My suggestion would be Grenwich in SE London. Ace pubs there. And only
2 stops on the tube :-).

On a beach and we have a bbq.
Other than that I don't mind, trains are rather nipp
Brum is better for me as it gives me an extra half hour drinking and

Thanks doug - it does say the 'kernel timer resolution may be set too
low' but I don;t know what to do about it.
I only want to try Rosegarden so I presume I can give it a go anyway.

Thanks Gav and Mathew
If I combine your ideas then I should be covered ?
Will this get things I have installed from debs or compiled?
Probably not apps I've downloaded directly (bin or whatever)
Do you think aptonCD a good idea combined with either/both of the above.

Have you thought of running an online version for those who can't make
the location(s)? A virtual assistants group that I belonged to had a
virtual office party every Christmas using our chatroom (MSN, Trillian,
Gaim, etc). We all just dropped in and out whenever work or other
commitments allowed.

If you want something on gnome - I like using banshee.
Not 100% sure on the crossfading though (the whole point of the thread) so best
to try it out yourself. It's a good (but minimalist) iPod management app too
(if you have one) so give it a whiz!

We're having a wonderful conversation on IRC about the potential location.
Currently the solution is to do a google map, and find a location with the
minimum average distance for participants. It seems to be a fair way of doing
things.

yep Amarok has very nice (and highly configurable) cross-fading support etc
- nicer UI etc than rhythmbox in my opinion (if you don't mind using KDE
apps under Gnome that is - you do get a few KDE libs with it too...)

Hello
Only partially related to the subject...
How do you set a separate partition for /home in Ubuntu? It doesn't seem
to give the choice in the installation process. I suppose I'd have to
create the partition manually after a clean install.
Thanks in advance if you can help

Hi,
Firstly, I always have /home as a seperate partition. This preserves
my files and per-user settings.
As for installed software, there is a way to save what packages are
currently installed. After installing the new Ubuntu, you can have it
reinstall the packages automatically. This said howeve

When I try to run Rosegarden I get the error message 'system timer
resolution too low' and the program won't start.
What does this mean?
Should I rant and scream, pull my hair and panic until I die or can I
fix it?
Any help appreciated

I often read users saying when a new or new stable version is released
they do a fresh install and then re-install all their configs and
programs and other goodies.
So...
If I want to do a fresh install as above to end up with almost a clone
of my present system running on a new version of Ubunt
