Hi Daniel
Welcome to the LUG list, welcome to the LUG in general even.
Our next meet on Saturday October 22nd is actually an event, so don't go
to the usual pub that we meet up at in Temple Quay. Instead please feel
free to come along to another part of Bristol and join us at Cafe Kino in
Stokes Croft. That's a about 20 minute to half hour walk from Temple
Quay, and its a bit up the road as in the A38/Gloucester Road from the
bus station. The post code is BS1 3RU. On the left hand side of the road
if going going that way, Cafe Kino is a bit further up in the corner of a
side road. You go past a big venue where events can also happen etc
first, Hamilton House. In the unlikly situation that you get to the
Colstons girls school you have gone past it already, and gone a little bit
to far.
You are welcome to just come along and meet some of us at the event, but
the event is aimed at the generall public to try and get them interested in
Linux and other open souce, and even Creative Commons music, movies, and
graphics to an extent, since its for Linux Presentation Day (
http://linux-presentation-day.org.uk ). More info on LUG website, or venue
website etc, but we also have a Facebook prescence that could do with more
sharing, people rspving yes or putting that they are interested. You can
get onto the Facebook event page from http://facebook.com/LPDBristolUK
Ideally still looking for helpers for this event, as well as people who can
generally help market/promote that the event is going to be happening. I
also have 11am to mid day booked in, for organisers and helpers for setting
up, and to possibly let event visitors in a bit earlier. 6pm to 7pm booked
in as well, for possibly running it a bit later, and clearing up etc.
People don't have to help out all day, but it would be good to have a few
more all day helpers ideally.
I also have a event flyer in two PDF versions A4 and A5, that I can send
people for own printing and distribution.
By the way Daniel, of interest what's your story with Linux etc, what
distro/s do you use etc, how long for, and why?
Best Regards
Sebastian
P.S
If you, or anyone else has any spare USB sticks we are looking for some (
ideally about 30 to 60) to give away Ubuntu 16.04 on at the event.

Correcting the below if going up the hill, from the bus station or
Broadmead shopping centre type direction. Cafe Kino is on the right hand
side of the road past Hamilton House, with the side road with Cafe Kino
being on the right as well. No need to cross the main road when going
from that direction. They have a events space in the basement. Oh and
the food and drinks are good there, well for vegan food and drinks it is
:), yes it's a vegan cafe. They even have a sort of special Cola there.
Regards
Sebastian

Hi
>By the way Daniel, of interest what's your story with Linux etc, what
distro/s do you use etc, how long for, and why?
Hmmm. Well, my introduction to UNIX originally was at Coventry UNI where,
primarily, I played a text MUD... (Yes, it was a while back now)
Later, while on a training course I got another taste of UNIX (XENIX,
bizarrely) where I got my (sick and twisted :) ) skills in vi.
Anyway, I worked as an IT Manager for a while after that, I developed a
management database in Access 95 and to be fair, when it wasn't failing for
no reason, it actually ran really well (it was a small company in terms of
IT (it is a construction firm) so scalability wasn't really an issue for
years and years after that).
But the failing for no reason went on. The straw that broke the camel's
back was back when MS offered to upgrade Office Developer's Edition to the
next version for all buyers of the previous version(I'd bought one
personally) who bought after a set date, as long as they sent them proof.
I did this, but because I couldn't prove it MY end (I'd already sent them
the proof I did have, and they denied all knowledge), they basically
shrugged their shoulders. 'Nothing you can do', they said, and refused to
honour the upgrade. Those were the days of Microsoft hegemony, I guess.
So I started looking for an alternative. I came across Linux, bizarrely,
on the back of a copy of Computer Weekly in DPM's Diary. It was a sideways
reference (as you'd expect) but it made me look into it.
I must say though that I actually prefer to use Linux on the desktop to
Windows. I can't pretend to have had much experience of the New
Hegemony(Apple) though; although I expect MacOSX to be a flashy BSD with
the interesting(to me) bits taken out.
Anyway, now, <cough> years after reading the DPM article, I'm pretty much a
full-time Linux Systems Engineer in Sunny Bristol. :)
As to distro, my chosen distro (from which this is being written) is
Debian, although I'm having to suffer(*) RH/CentOS as part of my job...
Dan
(*) I don't MIND RH, but... but...
