This is a reminder that our discussions are fairly free-formed, and if you, as a member, would like to lead a discussion or show off a cool new technology, we would love to see it.

If you’d like to reach us to learn more about Linux or Open Source tech, reach out to the Sarnia Tech Community where we have a #sllug channel on the Slack chatroom.

March 9th, 2019 - 2nd Annual InstallFest

InstallFest Info Image

Join us Saturday March 9th, 2019 for the Sarnia-Lambton Linux Users Group InstallFest. You don’t need to be a computer guru or even a power user. We will introduce you to Open Source technologies and teach you how to harness them.

There will be activities for all levels of user, from the day-to-day web browser to the grey beard.

Food and drinks will be provided throughout the day. Seating is limited.

Schedule

Beginner:

An opportunity to explore a variety of operating systems. Maybe you’ve thought of running Linux on your desktop, or you want to build a home theatre PC but would like some guidance.

Intermediate:

Already have some system skills? Come out and learn how to build web servers, database servers and other important systems that can be consumed by Track 1 and make the internet go

Advanced:

Be a part of the team that creates the virtual private cloud and container system that the Intermediates use to setup services.

We will be providing desktops, servers and software for all of this to work as well as a few key people who’ve done this sort of thing before to help guide everyone.

Register at EventBrite to guarantee a spot.

The event is held at Lambton College, in room D1-204 on Saturday, March 9th, 2019 from 10am to 5pm.

On Monday, January 21st at 7:00pm, you are invited to meet at Lambton College in meeting room A2-126 (this used to be room L211.) Parking is no longer monitored after 6pm, so parking is free.
