The New Jersey Linux User Group was founded in 2003. It had been started more than 10 years earlier as the OS/2 SIG of the NJ PC Users Group, and had been subsequently expanded to include Linux/Unix and other OS variants. We are now a dedicated Gnu/Linux user group focusing on the many flavors of Linux
We meet in Hackensack, NJ (Bergen County), convenient to Routes 4, 17 & 80, as well as the Garden State Parkway, New Jersey Turnpike and the George Washington Bridge. See the “Meetings” page for directions.
Please feel free to join us — all are welcome!
Bring your computers! We have a wired and wireless (802.11g) network running at the meetings as well as secure access to a running Linux server. We have a SVGA compatible projector and screen for mutual viewing or presentations. This allows us to all work together when trying new things or going over the basics.
We have interesting and educational meetings which include on-site installations of Linux on desktops, laptops and servers, as well as multi-boot setups. We have covered Linux certification materials from IBM and others that have proven to be great reviews of the basics as well as good discussion materials. We will continue with structured and productive meetings, with topics including all things Linux. Anything our members are interested in can be discussed, reviewed, and worked with in a hands-on environment.
