The Washington Ubuntu LoCo exists only to help others use Linux. We provide all software and sevices free of charge. Copies of Ubuntu Linux are distributed at all meetings at no cost. We assist with installation and everyday use. Our group acts as a hub for the Olympia Ubuntu community and more.
This is the Ubuntu Washington LoCo Team wiki page. We are here to promote and support the use of Ubuntu and FLOSS in the State of Washington. Have an idea for someone we should give Ubuntu CDs to? Know of an event we should be at? Need help getting Ubuntu installed? Have a problem with something Ubuntu-related, email our mailing list or post on our not-yet-live forum. Were all volunteers and happy to help out.
