  • @gnudoc
  • @stuartward
  • To say thanks for helping me at Oggcamp!
• Fixed Inkscape issue
  • When launching inkscape, I would click on a tool, then use it on the page. An error was presented “an internal error occurred, Inkscape will now close”. After some investigation it turns out that there was a DBUS error, more spcifically with DBUS and GTK. So I went to the Synaptic Package Manager and removed appmenu-gtk. Now everything seems ok.
  • I also updated the kernel to the latest available for Ubuntu, and reinstalled appmenu-gtk. Everything is now back to normal.
• I wrote some emails to
  • Linux Format, to say thank-you for their piece on Barcamp Blackpool.
  • Ubuntu UK podcast, they asked their listeners to tell they what they do with their jogglers. I use mine as a video ad for Ubuntu at events.
• Attended Blackpool Linux User Group
  • Investigated problems with a members laptop.

• Devised a new structure for weekly meetings, to focus the meetings and get as much as we can from the time that we have.

Wow what a busy week, and I’m sure next week will be even busier!
