Local support?
by Joel Nevison 18 Mar '17

18 Mar '17

Hello nmglug'ers,I am a member of the Northern Colorado lug and I put linux on the machines of two older ladies who live in Santa Fe.Frankly, I'm pretty pleased the machines have continued to work for over two years unsupported.One of them needs some help, her firefox is no longer supported and she is also getting an apt error message. Is there a chance she could get some help at one of your meetings?Failing that, is there anyone local I could refer her to? Thanks in advance-Joel Nevison

Dear nmglugers, Does anyone feel like helping with an installfest tomorrow? My students will show up at Warehouse 21 at 10am (some sooner) and I will start the day by getting them all to install a GNU/Linux distribution on an old laptop that they bring in. Does anyone feel like helping some kids install on their hardware?
