About Me

As of now, I finished my CS degree. My nick originated from my friends. My pal rrajbe introduced me to Ubuntu. I started out on 8.10 but still use it. From that time I got to know a lot about the linux and It made me feel good whenever I sit before my machine. I also have Windows installed because some friends (who use my machine) don't want to shift from it.

Moving my college mates over to Ubuntu has been successful. Over 150 people enlightened thus far Smile :) I help them when they are struggling with difficulties, but generally it is just fine.

First Step in Ubuntu

When I was in my early days of Ubuntu, I just used it for Internet purposes. Later I got into IRC where i found a vast exposure to Ubuntu.As a beginner, I just walked into the room and found people helping the new comers with a lots of personal interest and that impressed me in a way that added some more liking over Ubuntu.

My activities

Ubuntu For the first three months as a normal user, it went ordinary. Then I thought of helping the guys who comes with some problems and I am satisfied with the work I do now. Ubuntu Beginners team is the place where I learned a lot about Our community and Support. To learn new stuff in ubuntu, then #ubuntu-beginners at IRC is the best place to do that.

Ubuntu I am a part of BT Wiki FG and I helped in Summer Of Documentation 2010. Wiki FG made me learn about how important the documentation is and it is awesome to work with updating community pages.

Ubuntu On 13/07/2010, I became Ubuntu Beginners Team member. I will continue my participation in the IRC. I am helping people at my level best and I will continue the same in the Future :).

Ubuntu On 14/09/2010, I went to my ex-college and Installed Ubuntu in 60 Machines of the college laboratory.I advocate with lots of people about Ubuntu and made a huge number to install Ubuntu as a dual boot at the beginning and made them use Ubuntu as their main Operating system.

Ubuntu I am good with Dual boot and hardware issues. I am guiding people of my ex-college to learn about bugs and triaging them.I took many sessions on Ubuntu and its environment to my college and neighboring colleges. I am planning to take sessions regarding kernels as I am learning about Kernels and Bash scripting now.

Other Activities

Ubuntu On 07/06/2010, I attended a 5 days workshop on Ubuntu and I got to know a lot about the package maintenance and creation. I am thinking of starting a Linux Users Group in the college I studied and I am planning to join hands with Tamil Nadu Free Software Foundation and am fully fledged in spreading Ubuntu and free software in the forthcoming years.

Ubuntu On 17/07/2010, along with FSFTN,I conducted a two days workshop about Linux in Velalar Engineering College. About 300+ students and staffs attended that workshop and we gave Ubuntu Lucid Lynx CDs to all who made their presence to that workshop.The sessions like python, Tamil computing, SQL and free software movement was made clear to the people gathered.

Ubuntu We FSFTN people conducted a workshop in Kovilpatti and we got good response from the remote areas too :). I updated it in my old blog. We gave Ubuntu CDs there too.

Ubuntu I created a group in launchpad for our college students and started a mailings list for posting their doubts. We are going organize classes on every Sundays and We got about 250 people interested in those classes.We Inaugurated Nandha Linux Users Group on 22/08/2010 and 50 People came there for that meeting.On 19/09/2010 I am going to take sessions about Open source alternatives and Ubuntu Developers

My Future

I got a job and I am responsible for training up my friends and I am training my juniors of my college too.

I will visit all colleges near my locality and I will make awareness to all common people and will bring people to contribute for our community.

Thinking of doing an open source project regarding the monitoring of downloaded bytes by each web page or a an application. My basic Ideas are in link

Internet Relay Chat Basic Learning

I am using IRC mainly to increase my communication skills and learn about Ubuntu. Mainly I participate in:

  • Ubuntu #ubuntu-beginners

    Ubuntu #ubuntu-beginners-team

    Ubuntu #ubuntu-beginners-wiki

    Ubuntu #ubuntu-youth

    Ubuntu #ubuntu-in

    Ubuntu #lubuntu

Firstly, I learned a lot from UBT about working as a team. Secondly, everyone on the channel is quite nice and promptly helps whoever may need.

My Hobbies

I like to play games in my machine, roam with friends and debug code. I enjoyed my college life, although it is rather busy and still now I am making frequent visits to my college and I am going to start a LUG in my college at August 22nd.

I like being alone and planning what I have to do next Smile :)

Testimonials

Ubuntu Beginners Team Membership

As a good friend of Mohi's I've been very impressed with his work. Whether it's in the BeginnersTeam or the BT Wiki FG, or just about anywhere, it's always awesome. That being said, I completely support his application for BeginnersTeam membership. zkriesse 07-10-2010

I support mohi 100%. It's about time he went for UBT membership, and I endorse his application fully. He does great work, and has an outstanding sense of humor that really makes his application shine. -- paultag 2010-07-14 16:40:53

It is a pleasure to work with mohi. Our projects of classes have turned out quite well, and I expect many more to come. He surely has the helping spirit we all care for. pedro3005

In all my interactions with mohi he is always eager to learn and pass that knowledge on, he would be a valuable asset to the UBT and any area he should choose to join. phillw

Ubuntu Membership

Having an advocate of Ubuntu with over 150 people converted and offering them support is surely what Ubuntu membership is all about. His assistance on the support area as per the above testimonials show quite clearly his commitment to Ubuntu. I fully support his application for Ubuntu membership phillw.

Mohi Mohi Mohi....what can I say? There's so much that he's done it's just awesome. His work with the Ubuntu Beginners Team has been outstanding and he's now getting involved with the Ubuntu Youth Team as well. I'm very please to have him with us in Ubuntu Youth Team and I know that he'll be there whenever he's needed. He's always available for whatever, be it a kind word, a helping hand, or just some fun chit chat... He is extremely committed to Ubuntu and the Ubuntu Community and the multiple teams of which he is a part. He's got my full 100% support for his application to Ubuntu Membership. Please look upon his application favorably. zkriesse 2010-09-14 16:15:58

Wow! Spreading Ubuntu like this is what is going to help us fix bug #1 ! Giving the beginners a good user experience is also very much appreciated. His work in the Ubuntu Youth team is also exceptional. +1 All the way! -- Bilal Akhtar.

Mohi is a very enthusiastic ubuntu user who often chats in the BT channels and seeks to find out what is new, what is happening with the team members. His involvement in this distribution shows that he is interested in learning and passing along knowledge. I hope to interact with Mohi much more in the future. Keep up the good work. komputes

I have been very impressed with mohi's commitment and enthusiasm. An example of this has been his identifying educational needs in the community, finding someone knowledgeable in that area, and organizing classes. He identified that I work heavily on Ubuntu One and has been after me to do a class on Ubuntu One for awhile now. I think his friendliness, drive, dedication, and 'just get it done' attitude make him a good candidate for Ubuntu membership. I fully support his application. -- duanedesign 2010-09-18 10:09:02

I would like to voice Bilal's opinion here having seen mohan on the BT channels +1 from me too and I strongly endorse this application -- bhavi 18th September 2010
