Hi all, monthly notice, October 4.

Tomorrow night is the GNU/Linux Users' workshop: 7.30pm-9.30pm in the South Learning Centre (SLC), through rear door of South Christchurch Library at 66 Colombo Street, Cashmere: https://my.christchurchcitylibraries.com/locations/SOUTH/

LiveDVD/thumbdrive installs of freenix* distributions are used to demonstrate alternative desktop environments in the SLC computer lab of good i5 machines. Ubuntu-MATE is the Debian GNU/Linux variant we most display and Long Term Support releases like 16.04 are recommended, although 17.04 runs very well and will upgrade to 17.10 in two weeks' time. See http://debian.org background and http://ubuntu-mate.org/download/ for these distros and http://distrowatch.com for a great many more to choose from.

BYO distributions and new technologies welcome; overhead projector - let us know if you have a presentation to offer.

This week we organise the Software Freedom Day event, to be run at the lab on Saturday week.

Thank you for the support of this workshop and the Software Freedom Day annual installfest event.

Kind regards,

Rik Tindall
