Kia ora koutou
At previous Linux PLays we have talked about how handy it would be to
have a keyword searchable Wikipedia on a laptop. These instructions
were feature on Slashdot.org today and are apparently a lot faster
than the MySQL-based method:

We have a few things we could look at next Saturday:
- figure out how to make Ubuntu fit the screen on C4
- put Ubuntu on more of Oblong's PCs (including the now-rebuilt A4)
- set up one of the 300 Mhz P2s as a Linux Server and try to get the
A3 printer going
- figure out how to get macron support for typing Maori on Ubuntu
