[Smaug] Meeting tonight, and news

[Alexis Chen]

Thanks, Peter.

I am 95% over a head cold.  If I am a 99-100% this evening, I will be there.  At long last.  (It has been a busy schedule for me this semester.)

Meanwhile, an old high school friend emailed me about an issue.  He is a dipping his toe into linux after much wallowing in you-know-what.  (His dad was an IBMer in Almaden.)  It is as follows:

So I've got this netbook with a 4GB SSD hard drive and ubuntu
installed. I ran one system update and it filled up the entire hard
drive. I was going to clear out the localization, but I can't figure
out how to do it, or how to free up space in any meaningful way.

Any thoughts?  Thanks, in advance, Guys.

-Alexis

This may be interesting to people who are far from DSL or cable connections, but are in line-of-sight from the mountain peaks mentioned.

  It's completely normal that you lose data on "Windows" platforms.
  That's why you have a Linux/BSD/UNIX server for backups.
