Yup. Hotel and Eurostar booked. A few (10+) of us from HantsLUG (and one
interloper from WatfordLUG) are going "together". I say "together"

The Ubuntu-be people will be having a booth, and perhaps meetings and meals.

Sounds like a great idea, I have added to the agenda [0] for the next
meeting for discussion.

Is it only me that finds mailing lists to be very non user friendly?
And IRC is quite good when there is a meeting going on but there is
not much which can get done when there is just a few active members.
Is anyone in support of trying to get a forum on ubuntuforums.org
under their LoCo section?
Hi,
I am not quite sure on exactly what you mean.
Do you find that using Ubuntu for day to day use is too complicated or
was it just the initial installation of Ubuntu?
One more thing, what version did you have installed for you?

We do something along these lines at Infoseed in Edinburgh [1] though we
are very small. In our lab we have a dozen or so unwanted old computers
that we got for free mostly now running Ubuntu, providing facilities for
free Internet access and computing. We provided two computers to the forest
cafe
I've been lurking in the shadows as the debate about the use of FOSS in the
public arena raged(s) on. In my work I get to go to many, many party
political conferences mainly in Wales and it occurred to me that at most of
these conferences there are lobby stalls which promote all sort of non
profit

As a new comer to Ubuntu, I find that it is unnecessarily
sophisticated. What I need is an operating system that will run Open
Office and similar freeware on a simple turn-key basis, and not all
the facilities that I seem to have on my downloaded version of Ubuntu
- which I had to get someone

Hi,
Has anyone looked into taking donations of old PCs, which businesses
throw out, and installing a form of Ubuntu on them. Then giving them
to schools, youth clubs etc who couldn't afford to buy them?
I know there are a few systems like this already but this is a great
way to get Ubuntu used mo

Format the partition ubuntu is on, then either boot into Dos and type "FDisk
/mbr or boot to the comade console and type "/fixmbr " to
rewrite the master boot record and reinstate XP's bootloader.
I'm assuming XP is on partition C:.

I can't imagine most humans would want to go near fstab and that even
using the original device names and not the UUID symlinks, it's still
