If you want help installing Linux or just want to eat and hang out, come to installfest! The LUG Lounge, at Boelter Hall 2763, is a meeting/study/hangout place for the group and facilitates a lot its activities. Feel free to stop by and meet other Linux users (as well as people in ACM and UPE)!

There is a makerspace on the floor below us, where you can go and 3D print things (as well as lasercut them).

You might also find LUG members at the trash heap outside the first floor, next to the Engineering IV building, digging around for old monitors, computers, or networking equipment. We’re just gearing up for the next installfest…
