[Wylug-announce] ShefLUG - August 2009 Meeting

[Richard Ibbotson]

         Sheffield Linux Users Group (ShefLUG)

    Meetings are free and open to anyone to attend 

            Saturday 1st August 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.

For the past two years we have held meetings at Starbucks coffee shop 
at Western Bank next to the University.  We thought that our August 
meeting might go down well at the Walkley Cottage.  The address is...

                Walkley Cottage Inn
                46 Bole Hill Rd
                Sheffield, S6 5DD
                0114 234 4968

If you don't have a car then you might like to know that the No: 94 
and 95 buses run from High Street and Church Street (across from the 
Cathedral) through the city centre to the pub.  This is a frequent bus 
service every 10 to 15 minutes during the day.  Call 01709 515151 for 
bus information.  Use Google maps if you don't know where the Walkley 
Cottage is. Tea and coffee is available.  There is a good selection of 
beers which are well looked after.  Look out for someone sitting next 
to a Hewlett-Packard penguin with a laptop in front of him.

The topic of the meeting will be a general discussion or we can fix 
some hardware or software.    If you need some help with that we can 
most likely point you in the right direction.   If you want to 
know more about anything else come along and ask questions.  We seem 
to have a growing band of EeePC people who bring them along to 
meetings.     We can discuss any version of GNU/Linux that you might 
be interested in such as Fedora 11 or OpenSuSE 11.2 (released 
November) or 11.1.  There's also the updated version of the present 
Debian release.  Most people who come along to our meetings have used 
most versions of GNU/Linux and the BSDs.  Linux Tag has been and gone.  
Plenty to talk about there.
