Hi maccamenzies, I think it depends on how you define active. We're still here and happy to help out but for now, not much activity (feel free to change that!).

Thanks for the guide, has my new NUC up and running.

One question, is there a reason you chose to use the unsigned kernel? It forces turning off secureboot (which isn't ideal). Is there a way to...

Thanks elfy, I appreciate the help.

Good evening,

During the forum upgrade I tried to do the right thing and set up the correct email on the SSO to point to my most recent account that was the username "Jared Norris". However it...

QQ is referring to the code name for the 12.10 release - Quantal Quetzal.

For details on the release including how to install it check out the release notes -...

Thanks for that information, I'd think that this device is going to be fairly common throughout Australia going forward so it will be good for anyone happening by to know.

Awesome work! We've been keeping a running tally of what devices do and don't work in Australia at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AustralianTeam/Projects/WirelessBroadbandInformation

Would you mind...

I couldn't wait and upgraded a few days prior to the release. The upgrade went smooth with just a couple of minor issues which were mainly generated by user error (oops!) but otherwise, looking good....

I know there are definitely a few lurking around. A good way to get to know them better might be to organise a release party. Details were sent to the mailing list on how easy it is to organise one...

Yep, I'm still lurking. Trying to do a Master's degree part time while working full time is a bit of an effort. My time for anything other than sleep, work and study is kind of limited.

More than...

Hello s.fox, long time no see and thanks for the information. I thought it might be something like this but couldn't find any info on it on launchpad or the forums.

I'm wondering if it's just me in the way I use the forum or if this is a bug. Every time I follow a link to the forum (I'm hardly a regular posted but read occasionally) it asks me to login. It then...

I've not seen this in person but it looks a lot like errors people describe when having problems with EFI boots.

If you're able to disable this in the BIOS I'd try that first and see how it goes....

Well, for starters, I've ordered us some 11.10 CDs - http://lococouncil.ubuntu.com/2011/09/27/ordering-11-10-cds-is-now-open/ and getting supplied for any events should be easier and more plentiful....

Well it's official, we're now an official LoCo again!

Thanks to everyone for their hard work over the last 12 months or...

It will depend on what sort of modem it is and what version of Ubuntu it is.

The team has set up a page at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AustralianTeam/Projects/WirelessBroadbandInformation that would...

Most of the localised groups that have formed have been ad hoc for specific events. Examples of what I would refer to as these local groups are the release parties, groups who get together for...

I'm from up in Brisbane so I'm not sure about local courses but I'm sure Linux Users of Victoria (LUV) would be able to point you in the right direction. You can find their website here...

Gday and welcome to the Australian forums.

I'm not a grub expert but any time I've had a problem the following 2 help pages have got me out of trouble.

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2...

Just a quick update, the application has been acknowledged from the LoCo Council so now it's just a matter of waiting to hear how it all goes.

I'll keep everyone in the loop on this thread and the...

I just thought I'd let you all know where to find us online in some other places. Sign up to these social media accounts to keep up to date with Ubuntu-AU

Well I disagree with your summary of the previous discussion on the mailing list, there was never a disagreement that we needed local groups from my recollection of the threads. I think everyone was...

The only "work around" I've found is to actually find where I'd recorded what my password was and logged in using my user name and password. Seems a bit odd that one method works fine and the other...

Nice find, that's basically exactly what we are. We're too big to be an all inclusive lets do everything for everyone kind of group. We're more able to provide ideas and support to smaller groups, be...

I was about to log a post identical to this so sorry for the necro but is there anything we can do to resolve this? Is it an incorrect setting in a profile or account or something? It's a little...
