[ubuntu-uk] Anyone want to bring their expert knowledge of Ubuntu/Debian packaging to Manchester, UK on 21st April?

Hey there, UCubed, the Manchester-based Ubuntu unconference, will be held on Sunday 21st April in Manchester City Centre, and we're looking for someone to come along for a few hours and give a class/workshop on maintaining the Ubuntu packageset. We're looking to provide some classes and workshops

[ubuntu-uk] Any folks in Manchester interested in participating in an Ubuntu Global Jam event if I were to organise one?

Hey there, I was wondering if anyone in the Greater Manchester area would be interested in attending a Global Jam event in Madlab, in Manchester City Centre, if I were to get off my derrière and organise one. If you don't know what the Ubuntu Global Jam is, then check this

HI Andres, The questions isn't at all out of line. In fact, you've given me something else to add to the FAQ on the site :) I visited the eyeOS homepage and it sounds pretty cool. The one drawback, at least in my mind, is that it's based inside a browser, rather than running natively on a compute

Re: [ubuntu-uk] (no subject)

Hey there, Sorry your first experience of Ubuntu isn't as great as you would like it to be. We'll do everything we can to help you out. First of all, when a company says they don't support Linux, it only means that they haven't been formally trained in how to guide a user through the process of s

[ubuntu-uk] Users needed for masters project

Hey all, I've just started the project for my MSc course in Applied Computing and am in need of some guinea pigs to help design and test it. I'm going to be working on it between now and Monday 12th September, when my thesis is to be submitted, and I'm going to be using the user-centred design [1]

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Bug

It might be worth directing the user to askubuntu.com or ubuntuforums.org to see if there's any help to be got there. Also, when you're triaging a bug report, when you assign the upstream project to the report, it's best to follow the link provided to the upstream tracker and report the bug there

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Very Off Topic - Apologies in advance.

If it was me, I wouldn't attempt to do these things using my own hosted services for fear that something would go wrong due to my inexperience, tarnishing my reputation with the clients.

Re: [ubuntu-uk] NetBook issues - #1

My experience with Evolution has been far from optimal. It's always been kinda slow and extremely clunky, though I've never taken the time to figure out why. I guess this is one of the reasons :P If it's advice on how to keep Evolution in tip-top shape, then I can't help you there, though I'm sure
