As some one who pops lubuntu onto old kit, I am certainly up for it in my
local area. My problem being that I do get dragged across England for months
at a time in my job as 'Holding Mananger' for bars (pubs). If I were to
start one here in Warrington, I'd need to know there was some one to take

Hiyas,
I'm only on just above 'nodding' terms with edubuntu, but have seen that
they do have a good support group for the newcomers to it. As it is teachers
talking to teachers, they do have a far better understanding of the
specifics for classroom / computer labs than we could ever have. It is an

That is a distinctly good question, I have been using computers, in some shape
or form, since I was a young child, and without giving my age, that is a long
time.
And learn something new everyday, so my learning curve could be considered as
being decades.

I have heard with my own ears teachers complaining about applications

There is however a daily limit of reviews to try and limit bot -> api
attacks spamming the service to the point of unuse. It maybe that you

I'm intrigued by this. I've so far found that Unity breaks far fewer of

Please tell me how you get on with the 13hr battery life. The laptop
we have at home goes by 8hrs but only if the ASUS resource saving mode
is on. I seem to recall that things like video watching where affected
in this mode.

Hello,
Do any of you use the rating system in the ubuntu software centre?
I was able to rate many apps but was unable to rate Gwyddion.
Is there any reason for this? Could you try it?
Would you go through the effort of saying it also affects you here:
