<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div>Thanks Richard,<br><br></div>It's just that I have used quite a few special bells and whistles on Microsoft from DOS through 2.11, and up to 7 (at work) so am used to doing many tweaks etc that way.  Learning controls and commands on Xubuntu is an up-hill struggle, as I automatically think the wrong way.  I'll bring the laptop.  Sadly, I'll be driving and with BSc (Hons) in Safety and Health I can't even plead ignorance as to the effects of alcohol, so the beer is out.  I tend to do my drinking at home!<br>
<br></div>That won't stop me being completely mad - I have a life-time's experience <grin>.<br><br></div>Regards<br><br></div>David Walland<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

      Let me know if you get stuck...<br>
      <br>
      My mobile number should you need it is 07921512459.<br>
      <br>
      People usually bring along a laptop / netbook, but unless
      someone's having a problem with something, it's usually more of a
      discussion / beer drinking.<br>
      <br>
      If you want any help with anything, then it's a good idea to have
      your laptop there, so  we can see the problem first hand on your
      machine.<br>
      <br>
      Look forward to seeing you there.<br>

              I usually can't make Tuesdays, so have never needed to
              know before.  Where is Durham rowing club?  POstcode would
              be good too as I can then plug it into the TomTom and
              might even find it!<br>
              <br>
            </div>
            I'd really like to meet others in the gang.  Do we bring any
            kit or is this simply discussion?  I have a laptop with
            Xubuntu 12.04 64bit (which I'm using right now) and as a
            serious newbie, would appreciate any help I can beg borrow
            or steal on expanding my knowledge of how these things work.<br>
