LUGOD PROJECTS


The Linux Users' Group of Davis's core is our twice-monthly meetings. They're free, open to the public, and are a great place to learn about Linux, computers in general, and meet and network with similarly-minded people.

However, that's not all we do. The Linux User Group of Davis works on a number of 'extracurricular' projects, many of which are ongoing. Here's a list:

Documents LUGOD Created
 
  • UCD HOWTO Documents
    Our "UCD Res-Net" and "UCD PPP" documents explain how to get network connectivity through UC Davis using Linux.

 
 

Events LUGOD Holds
 
  • Meetings
    Obviously, there are our general meetings, which we hold twice a month. Past meeting minutes are available, as well as a schedule of upcoming meetings and a list of talks we're arranging.

  • Linux Demos
    Our LUGOD booth at places like the Farmer's Market, Davis Food Co-Op and Borders Books and Music are great places to get free Linux-related items and learn about Linux and LUGOD.

  • Installfests
    If you want to install or upgrade Linux on your PC and want some high quality help, these free, monthly, day-long sessions are perfect!

  • Lunchix
    Entirely social and casual. Members often meet on a Friday afternoon to talk tech. over lunch.

  • Linux Classes
    We occasionally hold introductory Linux classes with DCN.

  • Geek Swap
    August 2003 was our first "Geek Swap" fundraising swap meet!

  • Picn*x - Linux Anniversary Picnic & Barbecue
    LUGOD helps organize this yearly event (held in August in Sunnyvale) to celebrate the Linux OS's birthday.

 
 

Events LUGOD Attends
 

 
 

Organizations LUGOD Works With
 
  • Davis Community Meals
    A non-profit, non-denominational volunteer organization whose purpose is to provide low-incoming individuals food, shelter and other services in a community setting. LUGOD is hoping to help DCM with hardware, software and support.

  • Davis Community Network
    We helped refurbish computers, and have held public "Introductory Linux" classes with DCN. We also helped put together some Linux-based public access terminals (kiosks) run my DCN and Omsoft.

  • Davis High School
    We helped set up systems and get computers donated to DHS.

  • Yolo County Library
    We'd helped get over $1500 worth of Unix and Linux books donated to the Davis Public Library.
