Details | | Linux Computing self help group. Initially a small group at my home we could rotate the meeting place. Internet access would be required. What the group is aiming to do is to be adventurous and confident, to do something different and gain a deeper understanding of opensource and free computing, sharing and researching. Who would enjoy it. Any computer user who wants to explore Linux or BSD computing and IT in a supportive group. What equipment is needed?

Operating systems and all software are free. Examples of activities and research, Exploring Linux and BSD Operating systems, computer building and maintenance, keeping safe online, Bash Scripts, Office applications, 3D design, python programming, Stop Motion filming, networks, Running web servers, Blogs, Wikis, digital mapping, the list is endless. |
