[HLUG] Mention of us in LInux Format

[Steve Horsfield]

Further to our earlier  correspondence, I did attempt the upgrade to 11.04
with similarly disastrous results to my previous attempt with the beta. My
surmise is that it doesn't like the graphics controller in my 2004 skipware
for which it gives the numbers i915 and 82865g if those mean anything to
anyone. Ubuntu 10.10 keeps offering to upgrade, but I am resisting the
temptation.
