You/We should see if we can't get in touch with the Purdue Linux User's Group (PLUG) as well , as I know they have an 'Install Fest' each year/semester. Uh, I know a guy who visits their meetings from time to time. I'll lean on him for answers. There are an inordinate amount of geeks at Purdue, which is good. MilesZS

I'm on the PLUG mailing list - they've already had their spring Installfest but if they have a fall one we could probably participate.

Just joined the mailing list, I'm a 23 year old Ubuntu semi-n00b (only been using since oct 07) but I'd love to join the party and support local Indiana Ubuntu users!

Speaking of Purdue, you just got another Purdue student on your side! Here I'm kuruoujou, everywhere else I'm kuroshi.

I live in indy, so is this the best way to get help? by posting on the team's thread?.....My problem began when I booted one day and, shwammm!!, my screen is blank orange. I have a compaq f500 (nvidia chip, amd turion, broadcom wireless) and I was fine for a few days, so maybe an update did it...
I already went and took out compiz (sudo apt-get remove compiz core..etc) and still no ubuntu. Help me, please.

Re: using the forums to get help. You would probably have more luck opening your own thread, perhaps in this team's forum, with a subject line related to your problem, rather than in the comments to another thread. I am only noticing your plea for help because I am specifically subscribed to this thread.

I can't say that I've heard of any recent updates causing that sort of trouble. I take it that you're somewhat comfortable on the command-line, then? Do you know how to take a look at your Xorg logs?
