I have some OpenSuSE 11.2 DVDs left over from the LCA Open Day if anyone wants one. They're dual layer DVD's and have both 64 and 32 bit versions and they can run both Gnome and KDE live sessions. As per usual for OpenSuSE DVDs it has Desktop, Server and Developer tools all on the DVD and no need for an internet connection to get a full production server or desktop or development environment up and running. (Nvidia Drivers for Compiz excepted) (Enlightment, XFCE and Windowmaker desktop environments also included) Put hand up and I'll bring some up to the next WLUG meeting, or I'll put them in the post if needed urgently!

Next WLUG meeting is Saturday workshop on the 6th BTW. I'm planning to do a leaflet drop before then so hopefully we'll get some new people along too. On 31 January 2010 12:41, Graham Lauder <yorick_(a)openoffice.org> wrote:

sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree It's possible that you need to enable the universe/restricted/multiverse repositories first and reload the package information. You can do that through Synaptic or Software Sources. On 31 January 2010 19:10, Robert D Davidson <robert(a)datamatrix.co.nz> wrote:
