Hi all, monthly notice, July 4.

Wednesday night is the GNU/Linux Users' workshop: 7.30pm-9.30pm in the
South Learning Centre (SLC), through rear door of South Christchurch
Library at 66 Colombo Street, Cashmere -
https://my.christchurchcitylibraries.com/locations/SOUTH/ - held on the
South Library | Christchurch City Libraries<https://my.christchurchcitylibraries.com/locations/SOUTH/>
my.christchurchcitylibraries.com
Location about South Library. Sun 3 June: Marathon will affect access to…. June 1, 2018 Central Library Peterborough will be affected by…. Big Bargain Book Sale: Fri 23 & Sat 24 March 2018



first Wednesday monthly, Feb-Dec.

LiveDVD/thumbdrive installs of freenix* operating system distributions
are used to demonstrate alternative desktop environments, in the SLC
computer lab of i5 PCs

Ubuntu-MATE is the Debian GNU/Linux variant we most display and Long
Term Support releases like 18.04 are recommended, though rolling
upgrades (to 18.10 next) tend to run fastest with very latest kernel
drivers and software incorporated. Both are up-to-date, secure, and will
run well on a lot of old equipment to extend its life. See
http://debian.org background and http://ubuntu-mate.org/download/ for
these distros and http://distrowatch.com for a great many others to
choose from. Portable devices welcome, esp. laptops.

BYO distributions and any new tech as you like; overhead projector -
let us know if you have a presentation to offer.

Thank you for the support of this workshop and the Software Freedom Day
annual installfest event.

Kind regards,

Rik Tindall
