Hi all, monthly notice, June 7.
Tomorrow night is the GNU/Linux Users' workshop: 7.30pm-9.30pm in the
South Learning Centre, through rear door of South Christchurch Library
at 66 Colombo Street, Cashmere:
http://www.library.christchurch.org.nz/South/
LiveDVD/thumbdrive installs of freenix* distributions are used to
demonstrate alternative desktop environments in the SLC computer lab of
fast i5 Skylake machines. Ubuntu-MATE is the Debian GNU/Linux variant
most usually displayed, and Long Term Support releases like 16.04
recommended. 17.04 has some good speed improvements, except on closing;
excellent. See http://debian.org background and
http://ubuntu-mate.org/download/ for these distros. See
http://distrowatch.com for a great many more.
BYO distributions and new technologies welcome; overhead projector -
let us know if have a presentation to offer.
Thank you for the support of this workshop.
Kind regards,
Rik Tindall
