Hi all - just joined the Scottish LUG listing and am _fascinated_ by the variety of issues under discussion!
Like Harry, I'd definitely be interested in a 'newbie's night' for Linux. I've gone for RH7.2 just now, which has the advantage of being well documented: I bailed out of Mandrake 8.0 because I couldn't get documentation to help with any questions I had. Now I've got printers working, modem working, and my system to talk to Palm handhelds (and a Visor through USB). Linux _rocks_! My interests now are in getting Csound and other music programmes to work. This message printed on recycled electrons.... Neil.
