I would say the most important things to cover, especially for newbies would be
setting up Internet access, setting up wifi, printing, and OpenOffice.
As for the format, sounds like a decent setup you already listed. Although a
possible suggestion would be to consider having fliers/handouts/cheat sheets,
covering the main points of anything discussed, most handy for newbies or
people like me who don't always remember stuff right away. Might also be a good
idea for any presentations.
As for the smoke detector...maybe new battery is needed? Or, you could always
just unplug the thing and not worry about.

I been thinking about ideas for the lug such as meeting format, presentation
ideas and the like. The only problem is the smoke detector keeps going off. :-D
Possible Meeting Format
* FGMLUG announcements or other club items
* Short overview about any Linux or Open Source news.
* Presentations (if the group grows and has mixed population maybe two
presentations 1 for newbies and 1 for advanced users)
* Assistance time - help people with issues they may have
presentation brainstorm ideas
backups - online & local
terminal usage
setting up wifi
using Google
printing
PDFs
setting up Internet access
Open Office
GNUcash
Abiword
Gnumeric
Vim
Please provide feedback and some more ideas. Also any volunteers for
presentation?
-- Thanks,
