I am completely overwhelmed by the number of students interested in learning Linux. So far about 50 students have approached me. I have decided to take an initial intake of 20 students. The others are going to be considered for other sessions. Some of the sudents are:
Augustine Choko
Priscilla Musa
Pacharo Kincaid Phiri
Basheer Chilungo
Luke Nkosi
Elija Kaira
Blessings Katchuka
Herbert Mzumeni
Victor Jana
Edmond Kachale
I have started offering free Linux lessons right here in Blantyre, Malawi. My main target is to introduce Linux and other open source software applications to Computing and IT students. This is because, this is the next generation of computing professionals and therefore they shall be able to know that there is an alternative OS when they are in their workplaces.
If you are in Blantyre, Malawi and you wish to be part of the learning crew, then just phone on 08878910 or simply email bkankuzi at poly dot ac dot mw Absolutely free, no strings attached.
My friend Visopo Harawa brought me his IBM ThinkPad Laptop which was failing to boot. The power LED was indicating that power was coming to the system.
After trying this and that, I realised that the battery completely packed and it was breaking the circuit to power the system. I jumped with joy after the machine rebooted smoothly after removing the battery and retightened some screws on the motherboard. A laptop running without a backup battery?? Yes!! Half a loaf is better than none.
Our Departmental Linux router was failing to route packets.
Fixed the problem by writing a script which enabled packet forwarding and masquerading.
Software routing is great especially on Linux!!!
Why not try Linux for yourself??
