    Yep, same here. Started with 4.10 (Warty?). Just joined, too. Installed 7.10 on my new Inspiron 1520 last night.

    Re: Virginia LoCo Team!

    Hi! every body. I am absolutety new to ubuntu. One of my friend gave me Uduntu CD (Down loaded from Internet) before. I did install it on my desktop along with Window XP. So I had dual boot system. I was able to run both OS on the desk top. But Ubuntu was not not able to recognize network card, usb port, printers etc. I thought may be ubuntu software may be missing some files. Now I have downloaded ubuntu myself on my second Hard drive. I have 2- hard drives. But I did not open the downloaded file to install on the desk top. When I clicked the the downloaded ubuntufiles Icon. Popup window reads- " window needs to know which program created the file". My Questions are -

    1- Is it ok to burn this ubuntu downloaded files. And install ubuntu from the burned CD?

    2- How to install ubuntu downloaded from my second Hard drive? At this time I have only Window XP Professional with SP-2.

    I am very good for Window XP but I have very scanty knowladge about Ubuntu. I am still gathering knowladge about Ubuntu from Internet. Does any of you have basic information for completely new guy like me.
    I mean something like Ubuntu for idiots. Any help is appreciated.
    I am in NOV- Gainesville.

    Cool Awesome. Have been using Ubuntu Gusty now for about month and loving every day that goes by. Got my favorite game installing and running awesome, World of Warcraft and just started to play Urban Terror and Counter Strike with Steam.

    But anyways, I'm in Newport News, VA so if there will be any events or meetings where can I go for more information?

    I joined the Launchpad team. The IRC channel appears to be dead. I'm in Chesapeake VA and have been using Linux for almost 6 years now. I've been trying to find a local LUG, but can't find one. Anyone interested in trying to start one?

    I don't rightly know where Chesapeake is, but there is a LUG in Richmond called the RMLUG:

    Chesapeake is right next to VA Beach, about 10~15 mins from the VA-NC border.

    There is the Tidewater Unix Users Group. They have meetings in Norfolk at the Lake Taylor Transitional Care Center.
