Saturday 14th August

I attended a very useful B&B for me at Juniper Hill. There were 2 talks which to be honest were a bit above my head, although if there had been a microphone it might have made it easier for me to hear. There was a good crowd of people there, at least another from the Sussex LUG. Alas no Fay, hope she is well!

To my delight Desmond Armstrong helped me with getting my new midget dvd/writer to work. He used it to install Fedora 13 on a 16Gb card for me. He also upgraded my Eeepc900 memory to 2Gb. He has offered to give a talk in East Preston for our club...might be a waste of his talents..but we will enquire!

Showed Eldy to 2 or 3 people, they were interested and slightly impressed.

At home there seemed to be a problem with the battery pack. I changed to the old original one and all is OK now. I moved the card onto Kate's old machine and Fedora 13 worked fine including the wifi!

I met some old friends and made some new ones. Home via the A29 by a navigational error. A27 as usual, full of traffic and came via Arundel. Took some petrol on the way home.

Waste of talent on your East Preston club? Bit harsh on your friends, or is his talent just too much for everyone?
