There will be free pizza! ==Annual Installfest== Date: Thursday 18th October Time:6pm Venue: L101 (To be confirmed.) Redbrick will be hosting our annual Linux Installfest this week. Bring along your laptops and we will be showing you how to install a linux partition on your hard drive. For those of you that want to install a linux partition on your desktop PC at home, don't worry we will have Linux CD's to give out on the day. This will be a great opportunity for you to ask questions about Linux systems. We will be installing our own version of OpenSuse, called SuseBrick that has been tailored especially to help you get started using Redbrick services. You may also bring along any Linux distros yourself for your own installation, and ask for help at this event. It is recommended that those attending take a full backup of their files as although very unlikely it is possible to lose data during the installation. ==Talk Requests== Its that time of year again and we are organising all the talks and workshops for the year ahead. As always we want you to have your say and are open to suggestions. If you have any ideas about topics for talks you would like us to host during the year, let us know and we'll do our best to organise them. Feel free to let us know if there's a topic you'd like to give a talk on too! ==Quazar== We're planning a Bowling/Quazar trip for sometime during week six, watch this space for more information. If you would like to book your place on the trip sooner rather than later, email committee@redbrick.dcu.ie with your details. ==Account Renewal== New members and members who have already renewed may disregard this notice.
