Madison's September Ubuntu Hour

Please note that there was a time change starting in August. Ubuntu Hours will no longer be on Sundays, but rather on Saturdays. Setting in OpenOffice.org messed up? Scared you're going to mess up your partitions?Heard you could get a free operating system, but not sure where to start?

You've come to the right place!

Ubuntu Hours are a time when new users can come and ask questions without being afraid they will be made to feel stupid by experienced users. It's also a time when you won't feel crowded out by other discussions. It may not always be 1-on-1 support, but it will be close and might even be a better ratio!

As for Ubuntu Hour instructors, in the words of Ubuntu Loco leader Anthony Hook:

Wifi, local beer and other fun stuff at the Downtown Dane

Monthly MadLUG social meeting.  Not much to say about it.  Come get some food and enjoy free wifi...assuming they don't put us in a dead zone like the Hilldale one.  Please let Doug know on the list or privately if you will attend so proper reservations can be made.

Come talk about Linux or whatever else floats your boat.  As always, we are up for suggestions for the February social meeting.

Get a Job in Linux

Todd Nilson of www.talentline411.com will be coming to Madison from Milwaukee to help *YOU* learn how best to prepare yourself for a job in Linux (and technology more generally).

My (Doug) advice on parking is to park in the Lake St. lot and walk down university.  It's not super far, but you will get some exercise.
