The University of Illinois at Chicago Linux Users Group will be having
a Linux Install Party on

Date:  November 18th, 2006
Time:  10 am to 5 pm
Location:  Science and Engineering Laboratories, Room 2262  (ie. SEL2262)
directions:  http://tinyurl.com/y45wd9
Food:  Yes, we have some.  Still working on some details, but probably
a mix of greasy food and some healthy treats to accommodate our
non-carnivore compatriots.
Sponsors:  Novell, possibly NVidia as well, though I haven't heard a
reply back yet.

10 am to 5 pm we'll have speakers, presentations, lab setups (hands on
tutorials, limited seating but we'll walk you through the entire
process of installing Linux from start to finish, setup 3d
Acceleration, install a game, and maybe get beryl or xgl working on
the machine.  You may use your own machine if you'd like but we do
have 10-20 machines available to play with.)

Post 5 pm, we'll be having a purely Linux Gaming Night.  We'll be
playing tremulous and Openttd, and possibly some non-open source games
like UT and Quake pending availability.  Non-Linux Users are welcome
to attend, but we'll be limiting it to games that can natively run on
Linux.
