- All install media has been updated and checked.
Discussion:
- The download of Ubuntu 17.10 has been suspended by Canonical because of a bug that is causing a BIOS problem in some Lenovo, Toshiba, Acer, and Dell machines. When the bug is patched Ubuntu 17.10 will be once again cleared for download.
- CLUG T-shirts were on hand and passed out to members in attendance.
- New member information on the CLUG was passed out to the 2 new people in attendance.
- The Library has graciously offered the big room to the CLUG to hold installfests (on 28 April, 04 August, and 03 November from 1000-1530). This will perhaps enable us to reach an additional audience.
- Helen Patterson wanted to know how to change her Home Page and how to change her administrative password. Both questions were answered to her satisfaction.
Presentation:
