<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">To NMGLugers & Co., There used to be an Ubuntu group in Abq. If they remain in existence they might countenance other variants of Linux and any question in the Linux realm. And YES, use this mail to ask any questions, we have seen these over the years and thhis is a good way to draw on those who attend and those who follow the mail. And the latter group is larger than the former. I am a bit surprised there isn't something going on in Abq in the Gnu/Linux side of things.<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">Thank you.

<br>
I'm a non-professional Linux newbie who finds the prospect of making a special trip to Santa Fe to check out nmglug a bit of a stretch.<br>
<br>
But though I think my needs (and aptitude) are modest, the learning curve is steep. And the seemingly endless online searches leading only to more and more incomprehensible rabbit holes are expensive in terms of time, mental energy and spiritual isolation.<br>
<br>
So I have a couple of questions that I hope someone associated with nmglug might be willing to give me some perspective on.<br>
<br>
First, is there an identified group of Albuquerque-based members that might be made known to me with whom I might make contact?<br>
<br>
Second, is it acceptable for a very peripheral participant/non-participant to occasionally outline problems or specific situations and ask for help here?<br>
<br>
Thanks for reading,<br>
<br>
Tom in Albuquerque<br>
