Hey! That's quite a coincidence: we actually have a similar gathering in Beijing, every 1st Saturday of the month which we call Coding for Fun, but happens to be a mixed bag of GNU/Linux support and install helpdesk as well as coding and hacking on FOSS software and hardware. We've been running it in one of our member's beautiful office for the past 2 years and it has become a cornerstone of what we do. So now we just need to figure out how to get Don to either the WLUG or BLUG event... ;-) Fred On 09/17/2010 06:14 PM, Bruce Kingsbury wrote:

This is similar to an installfest, but much more regular. The first Saturday of each month we set up tables, power and network and people can bring their computers along and help each other solve any problems or just talk about what they've been doing or discovered lately.

Hi Don,
I didn't want to hijack your other thread so I'm replying here. Some have already made very good recommendations, but having been through the same troubles I remember that I finished my installation at my local GNU/Linux User Group. I am lucky enough to have a strong group nearby and one guy took the machine home and fixed what was not working.
Do you happen to have the same opportunity? SFD is not really a place for GNU/Linux support but if we can get you going I'm sure everyone will be happy.
Thanks.
Fred
