UTD Linux Users Group will host a Linux Installathon on a Saturday in early to mid February. We welcome anyone from UTD or the surrounding community to come and get help installing Linux or troubleshooting their problems. We also have video games and movies on a huge 20 foot screen. We do not supply food or beverages, so please bring your own or make other arrangements.

Last semester, we had a very successful installfest with 35 people in attendance. We even had the UTD Mercury show up and take some pictures.
