vimov is Sponsoring EGLUG’s 6th Installfest

March 6th, 2009

vimov is sponsoring the first Installfest in Alexandria on Monday, March 9th, 2009. The one day event, which is hosted by ITI and organized by EGLUG, is the sixth community-driven event to spread the word on GNU/Linux and Open Source in Egypt, and the first to be organized in Alexandria.

While in the past few years, adoption of GNU/Linux has been increasing rapidly, whether it would be in poor or large countries, small businesses or large enterprises, its market share in Egypt has not picked up. It thus remains up to the community to try to pass the word around on the benefits of Open Source software and technologies, and how Free and Open Source Software can help decrease costs at homes and businesses, increase efficiency and productiveness, and most importantly, reduce the reliance on proprietary technologies.

At the event, you can bring your desktop or laptop and get professional help from the most skilled geeks in Egypt on how to install a Linux distribution; setup the driver for a card you cannot get to work; or have any of your GNU/Linux questions answered. Additionally, many sessions will be held during the day that go from introductory basics like installing software to advanced topics like kernel programming and MySQL scalability.

The schedule of the day’s sessions is available at EGLUG’s wiki.
