Re: Introduction & Eee PC

Hi, welcome to QA. Hmm, if lubuntu is still too big for you I can only suggest you try lubuntu-core (not lubuntu-desktop) which is the really stripped down version of lubuntu. Details of the 11.10 series of this can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/MinimalInstal

Re: Next meeting chair

Hi Gema, I will, as previously promised, be chair if you cannot. I'm hoping it is because of something like a family party and not an illness. I will await replies as to if I put my self forward. Hopefully you will enjoy the minutes, the Lubuntu QA team has been created so I am no longer alone :)
