Is the Arkansas Team still functional? I just signed up all ready to get things going, but there is no activity anywhere. IRC, mailing list, this forum... all silent. Did I just catch it at a bad time?

We're not dead yet! Some of us just move VERY slowly....

Heh heh, well I knew Arkansas was laid back compared to my home state of California, but I wasn't expecting THIS! Nice to meetcha Tommy.

#4

Yep. We're around.

I'm relatively new to all this. Good to meet you. ):P

#5

I'm still kicking around as well. I just tend to lurk.. bad habits die hard and all.

I am in Little Rock. Using Ausu eeeP. And 10.04. But need local Tech help!

I am once again alive! I am also in Little Rock. I'm thinking 11.04 release party at my place. It's an apartment but it's nice, right by the river. I should be able to secure the use of the common room... maybe...

Anyhow! Let me know what you think!

Also, someone was needing tech help?

Howdy -- have you posted your problem(s) in any of the forums? Maybe we can help... I used to have an ASUS eeePC 900, and I used it for a couple of years (wore out a Patriot SSD upgrade, too, which they replaced). I installed 10.04 Netbook Edition on it before I gave it away a few months ago, but I might remember some stuff.

If you haven't posted your question somewhere else go ahead and create a NEW thread, preferably in the Hardware & Laptop forum and link it here.

If you post the question here MAYBE we can suggest something, but as you can tell this particular forum isn't the place for QUICK responses. :-\"

A release party would be fun. If you decide to give it a go, you might also want to announce it on all the local lists and groups...

I think http://www.arkansasgeekcentral.com/ has most of the local computer groups listed, so you might want to promote any release party among all the linux groups. Maybe even if they are far away; maybe we can have some virtual participation, too.

not a bad plan!

I am just sitting here too.

#12

I'm here.

Did anybody notice the NEW THREAD!!!! This one is sorta depressing. Come on, you know you're watching! Join in some discussion! Start a discussion! What's it like being a Linux user in Arkansas? What's it like STILL trying to convince people that Linux isn't just for "programmers"? Are there any sportsfans here? Arkansas just had kind of a big deal in sports I understand. Also: What can we do as a group? A Project?

As Tommy mentioned back in December 2008, some of us move slow. Back when I was younger, my friends and me were out shooting pool and met some women and got talking. Later one of my friends would say; "man, that girl was trying to get you to go home with her"! Hummm, so, guess I am slow in other ways too! :rolleyes:

This the new thread? :P http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1705782

I did notice a few days ago, so, I go there and answer some questions from here and see if we can get the new thread frying fish (cooking)\\:D/ !
