[Gllug] GLLUG Installfest

[Zachary Struhs]

The Greater London Linux User Group is set to have an Install Fest.


 Date: 21st June 2003
 Time: 12:00noon - 5:00pm
 Location: Westminster University (New Cavendish Street campus)
 

We will be meeting in the New Cavendish Street campus of Westminster 
University. This is in the shadow of the BT Tower, the nearest tube stations 
are Great Portland Street, Warren Street and Goodge Street. You will find a 
map at [ http://www.wmin.ac.uk/static/maps.asp ] or via www.streetmap.co.uk 

NOTE: you will need to sign in at the front desk to gain access to the 
building. There are building works at the moment but we'll post signs if the 
entrance has moved. 


Schedule 


TBA - A screening of "Revolution OS" is in the works, and will be shown in the 
last half of the meeting. A speaker was scheduled but after review of their 
schedule a cancellation was needed. Don't worry the search continues and we 
should have a definite schedule by next week. 


Other activities 


Away from the formal lectures, we have two rooms set aside, both on the second 
floor, same level as main lecture room. 

The network lab, as it is known, can be used for rolling demos of Linux being 
installations and to experiment with configuration. 

We also have the Multimedia room. This will be used for people to set is up 
their own machines. You can do this if you have something to show off, or you 
are looking for a solution to some problems. If your are bringing in your own 
machine, make sure you sign it in when you arrive, otherwise security won't 
let you take it when you go! We'll have monitors, keyboards, mice, and 
powerleads available. [So no need to lug all that stuff]. 

We will have access to some of the latest iso images and a CD-Burner. 

If you decide to bring a PC, please have the serial number written down ahead 
of time, in case it needs to be registered at the ground floor Reception. We 
may also take a picture of you and your PC as proof of ownership. 

The network lab and the multimedia room are the places you can go to, should 
you be looking for sanctuary away from the formal talks. If we're lucky the 
Refectory on the ground floor will have its food and drinks machines 
restocked. 


After 


After the meeting, for those that want, the group will move off to 'The Green 
Man' public house, very close to Great Portland Street. We have it booked 
from 5:30pm, downstairs. Even if you were unable to make the daytime meeting, 
please feel free to join us at the pub. To help you find the pub have a look 
at this external streetmap link.
