<br>NOTICE
<br><br>Thursday 11 October 2007 (gather from 18:30 for 19:00 start)
<br>Speakers: Lincolnshire Linux User Group members<br>Topic: An introduction to installing/using GNU/Linux for beginners<br><br>This is a joint meeting of the British Computer Society (BCS) Lincolnshire branch (<a href="http://lincolnshire.bcs.org/" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">
http://lincolnshire.bcs.org/</a>), together with the Lincolnshire Linux User Group
(<a href="http://www.lincs.lug.org.uk/" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">http://www.lincs.lug.org.uk/</a>) and with BCS Open Source Specialist
Group (<a href="http://ossg.bcs.org/" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">http://ossg.bcs.org/</a>).<br><br>The
format will be more that of a workshop/tutorial, and will be designed
to encourage 'hands-on' experience of using several GNU/Linux distros
(in particular Ubuntu, Debian and Knoppix). It will also allow for
exchange of information and ideas, and try to answer questions and
queries about GNU/Linux, especially for those who have little or no
experience. If you have a laptop with a Linux installation, please feel
free to bring it along to help demonstrate, or raise questions
(although we cannot guarantee to answer all questions).
