The University of Auckland Linux User Group are proud to announce our 1st Installfest for the new UALUG incarnation. For those of you that are new to the Open Source world an Installfest is basically an event during which experienced Linux users are on hand to help those that want to get started with using Free and Open Source Software.
The event will start with a couple of talks from members of the LUG on how to get started installing Linux on your computer and a demo session of machines running various Linux distributions. The rest of the day will be taken up with the Installfest proper, during which members of the LUG will be on hand to help out and provide general technical support. The will also be free CDROMs of various Linux distributions available for you to install at home.
If you are interested in Free and Open Source alternatives to proprietary software please feel free to come along and find out more. If you would like to have a go at installing Linux on your computer (Laptop or Desktop) please bring it along.
The event will be held in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Briefing Room (Rm#: 303.257), 2nd Floor, University of Auckland Science Centre, Princes St, Auckland on the 2nd May 2010 from 10am - 5pm.
