What happened

• TonyWhitmore got the Ubuntu package for Wifi-radar working on Debian Etch (install dhcp3-client!).

• AdamTrickett helped people to install QEMU, and MartinWimpress started a Wiki page here for QEMU: LinuxHints/QemuEmulation

• IanBrazier installed wifi-radar with Tony’s instructions (wiki article at LinuxHints/InstallingWifiRadar)

• SteveWalker went home a happy bunny with his 11b wifi working on his Ubuntu laptop. Still working on the 11g. Thanks for the very friendly welcome to a new member.

• JamesGrant went home happy after a hardware conflict was fixed with his modem and he was signed up to UKlinux.net as his ISP.

• CaroleCosse went home happy after she was shown the powers of Ubuntu recovery mode and her lost password was reset and localhost loopback address fixed.

• LauraCowen succumbed to the lure of Ubuntu and started wondering if she could get away with using it at work. MarkJohnson watched and said “Press OK”.

• AndyRansom failed yet again to get anything constructive done beyond talking to people and eating donuts

• HugoMills was more productive than AndyRansom, by distracting NeilFerguson as he was helping people. He also went to the pub for lunch.
