Currently this page serves as a stub for the February 10th installfest. Once we've decided on a theme and finalized times, they will be posted here.

As with the November 2005 installfest, we'd like to have a theme for this installfest. So, post your ideas here:

  • Linux so easy Grandma could use it

Find easy ways to get people started. OpenOffice, Picasa or F-Spot etc. First person to mention writing udev rules or needing to write a shell script for something will be smacked.

  • Show off your peripherals

Folks could bring in interesting peripherals, DV cameras, Wii remotes, tape changers, etc, and show them working with Linux.

  • Games, Games, Games!

A little bit of Lan Gaming, both with open and proprietary games (Doom, RTCW, etc)

  • Free/Open replacements for common proprietary software

Rich Burridge of sun has put together a list of freeware replacements for common proprietary programs. He's from Sun, so you'll have to forgive him mixing freeware and open source. They do that all the time.

We'll then bounce the ideas on the plan list to get going.
