Subject: [Chester LUG] NW Hackspace
Message-ID: <1238683872.3626.562.camel@GNUpad>

Hackspace - a place for hacking. Playful invention with hardware, from
Arduino to 3D printers. As one of the hackspaces puts it: "We're looking
to create a hackerspace where anyone interested in technology, or
digital or electronic art can meet, socialise and collaborate."

There are hackspaces all over the world [1], and now the UK. A new group
[2] is trying to set up hackspaces in London [3] & Birmingham [4].

Why not the North West you ask? Well, I asked anyway ;) - so now we have
a NW group - come and join the mailing list [5].

WHERE?
Members of Liverpool LUG have expressed an interest, and want to tie it
in with planned workshops & the local arduino community. In Manchester
the local coworking group are interested in sharing the space. In
Stockport we're looking at a storey of a nice mill building [6], and
hoping to find a community of people to join in. In Bangor there's a
social enterprise start-up that would integrate very well with the
space.

JOIN IN
If you're in N Wales or NW England, and interested in creative, fun (or
profitable) things to do with computers, or would like to link such
things with social action, perhaps, join the list. These things will
only work with *people* - I'm committing a little time to help get these
off the ground, but it'll only work if we all muck in.

WHAT NEXT?
If you just want to follow what's happening follow us on Twitter [7],
sign up & lurk on the Google Group, or wait until we set up an
[announce] mailing list.

Please feel free to copy & re-post this e-mail,  Tweet it,
Dig/Reddit/social bookmark it/link to it at

to anyone who might be interested in joining in the hackspace fun :-)

LOL

I know it has been done many time over, but it could be fun to have a light
hearted debate on the old VI, Nano, Emacs question.  Instead of the usual
"MINE IS BEST, YOU ALL SUCK" it could be a "I like this feature".  (of
course some light jibes wouldn't be completely out of the question!)

I prefer to waste my time with this:-

telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl

I thought it would be a while before I was concerned about getting IPv6 
though.. LoL!

Message-ID: <1240010495.5257.6.camel@GNUpad>

Please forward:
 NW Hackspace Meeting in Liverpool
Wednesday April 22, 2009 from 7:00pm - 8:30pm

FACT (Foundation for Art and Creative Technology)
88 Wood Street
Liverpool, England L1 4D Get Directions

A start to getting together a crowd to open a NW Hackspace in Liverpool:

Starting Weds 22 April, a fortnightly meet-up at 7pm at FACT. We may try
and meet in their media lab at some time, but we'll start with the bar.

Adrian McEwan will bring along Bubblino (as seen on BBC ;) to the first
meeting. Format will be informal discussion after a short intro on
hackspaces.

One reason for choosing this coming Wednesday is that it follows
straight on from the Small Steps to Sustainability meeting on Creative
Learning [1] - something that very much includes having fun in a
hackerspace. I hope that some people will find themselves staying on
from Small Steps for the Hackspace Meeting (or coming early to the HS
meeting, to take part in Small Steps).

Note that Birmingham hackspace combine regular pub meetings with
occasional weekend hackdays. Help us find a venue and we'll be doing the
same.

Hi Chester LUG
I have just started using Linux and feel I really could do with joining a
User Group, I want to get to grips with this system and know I will need
pointing in the right direction at this time. Unfortunately although I would
very much like to meet you I am not able to attend your Thursday meeting as
I am learning Italian on these nights until June.

A little history, I have used Windows for some time, though I was a
reluctant convert from Atari and before that Commodor. Now I want to break
free from Micro Soft and support the free software community and experiment
a little. We still have a Windows system which my wife uses mostly. My main
needs apart from exploring Linux are for digital photography, music,
podcasts (I have an iPod) and internet and email etc

I have managed to install Opensuse 11.1 on a Computer I have rebuilt with
mostly new components, but this was not my first choice distro! I wanted
either or both Linux Mint or Ubuntu but have not been able to install even
though both work from a live disk. The installation seems to stall at step 4
formating the hard drive. I just get the busy cursor and thats it, I have
left the machine running for hours with this but only once after an over
night run did I get to step 5 and then that stalled with the same symptoms.
I've tried  it on a new drive which I partisioned using Ubuntu's
partisioning app from the live DVD, on a drive with Suse and on another new
drive. I've tried manual as well as the other options.

So after many attempts I am baffled, particularly as Suse installed with no
problems what so ever and very quickly.

Over view of system:

   - I have rebuilt the computer from components purchased at Ebuyer
   - ASUS P5QL PRO iP43 Socket 775 mother board
   - Intel Pentium Dual Core E2220 2.4GHz (800MHz) Socket 775
   - Tempory Graphics Card PCI (not PCI express) NVidia Riva TNT Model
   64?pro
   - Kingston 4GB (2x2GB) DDR2 800MHz/PC2-6400 RAM
   - Maxtor 500GB Hard Drive SATAII 7200rpm  OEM
   - WCD serial SATA 500GB
   - VNew 550wat power supply (the orininal was to small)
   - Fujitsu Siemens Scaleoview L19W-2SA 19" Wide screen Monitor
   - Creative Inspire T6100 5.1 Speakers

Original Case from Eveshame with Samaung CD R RW, AND Samsung DVD ROM

I hope some will be able to piont me in the right direction as I really want
to get Mint or Ubuntu running.

Yours hopefully

Richard

Its a bit puzzling. I've just googled and it gave this 
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=778820 which seems to be similar but 
he didn't get any responses.

You could try downloading http://www.dban.org/ and doing a quick disk wipe to 
make sure your disk is clean before retrying.

Have you tried installing from the command line, i.e. not from the live CD 
screen.

This page may be helpful https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation and 
this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/forum/installation/Partitioning 
mentions a program called TestDisk which may help.

 Dave.

Not sure if this is any use to you, but the latest version of Ubuntu came out last week.  Just download and burn the ISO to disc in the normal way.  I hear that they've added more hardware compatability and this might (big might here!) solve your issues.

I use ubuntu and find that more stuff works with each new version.


Cheers


Paul

Welcome Richard! Thanks for joining.

There's a good lot of tutorials out there, varying in quality and
quantity it has to be said, but generally GIYF!
I think our members have experience in various areas and to various
levels, we've a couple with audio/video interests so they should just
about cobble some sense together (:

It's a shame you can't make Thursdays but paths may cross at some point!

Further to Paul's point, have you tried other non-Deb/Ubu-ish distros?
Just caught my eye that Suse was okay and I've never had hardware
troubles with Fedora though my setup is far from esoteric!

Just wanted to echo everyone else in saying welcome to the group Richard,
nice to have you aboard. I'm sure we will be able to help with most problems
you might have transferring to Linux. Your problem with installing Ubuntu
and Mint is a strange one but as both distributions are based on Debian, I
wonder if it's something you would get with all Debian-based distros. I've
heard similar stories with some hardware in the past.

Hopefully the new Ubuntu release might help you out with more hardware
support. It would seem to be some problem with the motherboard and the hard
disk controllers not being supported to me but I'm not a hardware guru,
that's just a hunch. You could try the alternative installer CD or even the
64 bit versions of Ubuntu. The alternative install is aimed at people with
these sorts of hardware problems I think.

http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#alternate

Let us know how you get on and I'm sure we can get it working somehow. Best
of luck!

Hi All
Thanks for your response to my email, the advice is very helpful and I am
going to to pursue a number of lines now. I am down loading Ubuntu 9.4 and
will also down load the 64 bit version. I read today on the Ubuntu Hard Ware
compatibility site that  ASUS P5QL PRO mother boards do seem to have a HD
driver problem but that there may be ways round it. So if not too technical
I could have a go. As for installing from the command line That might be a
step too far until I can learn more about how to do it or if it comes with a
idiot guide.
Will keep you informed of my progress as I make any!
Thanks again
Richard

Welcome Richard! Thanks for joining.



There's a good lot of tutorials out there, varying in quality and

quantity it has to be said, but generally GIYF!

I think our members have experience in various areas and to various

levels, we've a couple with audio/video interests so they should just

about cobble some sense together (:



It's a shame you can't make Thursdays but paths may cross at some point!

The alternative installer CD has a text based install but it's just as easy
as the main one. It leads you through prompting for information the same, it
just does it in a text screen rather than a GUI. If you can use the normal
installer you'll be able to use the alternative without a problem one I
reckon. Might be worth a go. If it's a HDD driver problem I'm not sure it'll
help. The text based installer is great for machines with graphics card
issues. Once installed, some things work that wouldn't work on the LiveCD,
it's strange but often does the trick.

Good luck with it, I hope you get it working. If you get stuck or have any
questions just let us know and we'll try to help :)

My machine has a VGA port on the graphics card (nvidia) and on the main machine.  I used to find that ubuntu could handle the normal vga but had problems with the nvidia card until the drivers were in place.  If you can bypass your card until you've installed, then click on the restricted drivers icon near the top, install the drivers then reconnect the card, it might make a difference.  It might not, but then again it might.

Good luck with it, I hope you get it working. If you get stuck or have any questions just let us know and we'll try to help :)

Hi All

Thanks for your response to my email, the advice is very helpful and I am going to to pursue a number of lines now. I am down loading Ubuntu 9.4 and will also down load the 64 bit version. I read today on the Ubuntu Hard Ware compatibility site that  ASUS P5QL PRO mother boards do seem to have a HD driver problem but that there may be ways round it. So if not too technical I could have a go. As for installing from the command line That might be a step too far until I can learn more about how to do it or if it comes with a idiot guide.


Will keep you informed of my progress as I make any!
Thanks again
Richard

Just wanted to echo everyone else in saying welcome to the group Richard, nice to have you aboard. I'm sure we will be able to help with most problems you might have transferring to Linux. Your problem with installing Ubuntu and Mint is a strange one but as both distributions are based on Debian, I wonder if it's something you would get with all Debian-based distros. I've heard similar stories with some hardware in the past.




Hopefully the new Ubuntu release might help you out with more hardware support. It would seem to be some problem with the motherboard and the hard disk controllers not being supported to me but I'm not a hardware guru, that's just a hunch. You could try the alternative installer CD or even the 64 bit versions of Ubuntu. The alternative install is aimed at people with these sorts of hardware problems I think.




http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#alternate

Let us know how you get on and I'm sure we can get it working somehow. Best of luck!

Welcome Richard! Thanks for joining.



There's a good lot of tutorials out there, varying in quality and

quantity it has to be said, but generally GIYF!

I think our members have experience in various areas and to various

levels, we've a couple with audio/video interests so they should just

about cobble some sense together (:



It's a shame you can't make Thursdays but paths may cross at some point!

Further to Paul's point, have you tried other non-Deb/Ubu-ish distros?

Just caught my eye that Suse was okay and I've never had hardware

troubles with Fedora though my setup is far from esoteric!

Hi all,

Quick reminder that our next social is tomorrow evening from 7pm at the Old
King's Head.  I'm down in London for the day so will be there a little later
depending on the train.

See you tomorrow.

If this revision goes as well as I hope it will, I'll be there and
daresay have a pint to forget it all before the exam (:

Sorry guys I don't think I can make it 2moro night. I've missed a couple of
meets now I know, so I really must brush up on my attendance. April has been
a crazy month for me but hopefully I can improve my attendance record in
May. Have a great night everyone, I'm sure it'll be fun :)

Hi everyone,

I will be there later on assuming I get back from this server upgrade  
in time.

See you later
