The Sydney Linux Users Group (SLUG)

SLUG is primarily a meeting for the minds, a place to learn about and discuss Linux. The 'meetings' take place in real venues, once a month on the last Friday, or in 'virtual space', via our mailing list and Web pages.

SLUG members are made up of professionals, semi-professionals, hobbyists, and just those who like to play and gain knowledge of Linux and the vast number of freely available application packages.

SLUG is about sharing experiences, knowledge and fun.

SLUG caters for all levels, those who are new to Linux, wanting to know how to install or setup Linux, to experienced kernel hackers.

You can contact the SLUG committee at committee@slug.org.au

Compsoc runs events such as installfests, codefests and general social gatherings each year for CSE students at UNSW. We provide drop-in linux tech support in our office, and run various services including an IRC server. More details on our website.
