Hi all, monthly notice, September 6.
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:
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
modern 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 has shown rapid development and runs very well. See
http://debian.org background and http://ubuntu-mate.org/download/ for
these distros and http://distrowatch.com for a great many others 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 SFD.
Kind regards,
Rik Tindall
