[Opensource] LUV March Beginner's Workshop - Sat 20 Mar 2010

[Donna Benjamin]

---------------------------------------------------
Saturday 20 Mar 12 noon at The Hub @ Docklands
near cnr Bourke St and Harbour Esplanade, Docklands
---------------------------------------------------

It's time again for the LUV Beginner's Workshop, and in addition to the usual 
workshop format, we will also have a talk - "Games on Linux" by Andrew Pam. 
So come along on March 20th for twice the goodness!

The talk will start one hour into the workshop, at 1pm.

In the usual workshop format, we intend to cover things like:

  * installing various linux distributions;
  * tweaking and configuring your system;
  * automatic backups;
  * home networking, including wireless;
  * setting up specific platforms (e.g. mythtv, asterisk, ubuntustudio, etc);
  * using specific applications - openoffice, inkscape, gimp, openmoviestudio

... but if you want help with a different application or problem, come along 
and let us know. The event is what you make of it. Bring your laptop!
