watch tv made easy (at least in switzerland)
Hi all I'm a Zurich based ubuntu-ch list lurker. I would like to share something that might be of interest for those of you living in the area of Switzerland. If you find time to watch tv sometimes, but are sick of the mandatory ads added by most providers (zattoo, wilmaa, teleboy) and also sick of using slow and proprietary flash, this is for you. watchteleboy is a bash script built around rtmpdump and mplayer and lets you watch and record streams provided by teleboy.ch. You can get it from github [1] PPA [2]: $ sudo apt-add-repository ppa:reduzierer/reduzent $ sudo aptitude update $ sudo aptitude install watchteleboy Simply run 'watchteleboy' in a terminal to use it. I am not in any way affiliated to any of the aforementioned companies/services and I hope you find the script useful.

My next trip to Switzerland
Heya, Some of you know that although I'm still listed at quite a few places related to the Ubuntu swiss team, I've been living in Canada for more than 3 years now. I usually travel back to Switzerland for a few months a year as my work at Canonical allows me to work from pretty much anywhere. This year, I'll be around between the 7th to the 29th of April to be in Europe for the Ubuntu 12.04 release as my usual US eastern timezone doesn't work great when you have to attend the release sprint meetings that are full of Europeans :) So I'll be around for these 3 weeks, mostly working on the release and actually releasing Ubuntu and Edubuntu on the 26th. I haven't made up my mind on the 28th on whether I'll be attending Ubucon or not, the biggest problem being the location and the fact that I'll be flying back to Canada from Geneva the day after :) So if anyone living around Neuchatel or driving through that area is going to Ubucon12, coming back the same day and can give me a lift, I'll probably attend. I'm also happy to give a talk there on anything related to Ubuntu. I'm one of the two Edubuntu project leaders, Ubuntu Core Developer, member of the Ubuntu Technical Board and involved with the Ubuntu release team, so just find a topic and I'll be happy to talk about it ;)(Continue reading)

I'm back! (back in... orange?)
Hi all, Just a little ping to let you all know that I moved back to Switzerland, in Geneva (instead of Zurich) :) I will add myself to the regional contact list as soon as possible. Also, I now am a Canonical employee, so while I cannot speak for the company officially or participate on their behalf, I can and will help with any communication or issues at the best of my capacity :) Hope to see you all pretty soon, Best regards, - Chris / Tribaal

Re: Ubuntu-ch Digest, Vol 65, Issue 3
Hi Marco and welcome on board!
Thanks for pointing the Zentyal server- it does look very interesting.
As for your question about adoption of Ubuntu by companies in Switzerland; I can't speak for many of them but I know that my company (a medium to large entity in Switzerland) does use Ubuntu on quite a lot of their servers.
Also a question to the regular participants of the Ubuntu meeting: are the meetings and presentation usually/ only in (Swiss) German? I am from the French part...
Thanks

Hi Marcus,
Thanks for the heads-up. I'll check ubunteros. If you need help for
the Ubucon, I'm available ;)
Cheers,
Marco

Hello CH Community!
Hi all, I just moved in to Switzerland, more precisely, Winterthur. So, let me give a small intro about my self: If been using Ubuntu since 2005 and have been a part of the Portuguese community almost from the beginning. Started using it during University ( Computer Networks engineering - finnish my Masters last year) . It was with Ubuntu that I got my first job, at a portuguese Start up named Intraneia, where I did development, client management, system & network administration, basically, worked with Open Source software to help and give value to our clients. e.g Ubuntu, Drupal, Wordpress, Zentyal (Linux Small Business Server based on Ubuntu) and other software. (If you havent tried Zentyal, you should, its pretty good ) However, i've "moved out" of that area for the past 2 years (Been working at Deloitte in IT Audit and Security Consulting), but now, moving in to Switzerland, I wanted to get back in to the scene, know people and debate ideas :) For now, I'm "searching for my path", basically looking for work, but starting some projects in a personal level, for freelancing. Getting back to Rails and learning Android. Well, this is my little story. So, 2 questions: 1. Is Ubuntu, or making the question even deeper, is Linux well known in CH? do companies ( lets talk for now of SME ) accept it? 2. I also saw that there will be a Ubuntu release party in Winterthur, how many people usually go? In Portugal we had a monthly Ubuntu meeting, for everyone how wanted to come talk or get help, there average would be around 6/7 persons, the max we got was about 15.

Ubucon 12 Switzerland
Hi all. You might already have heard some rumors, and yes, they are true: we are planning to extend the Release Party in Winterthur to the first Swiss Ubucon. The 12 in the name stands for the year ;) The aim is to have talks and workshops over the day and the Release Party in the evening (at a bar nearby). At the moment we are in early planning stage, but if you are interested in helping out in some kind of form (either planning, or orga at the event), just let me know. Greetings and a Happy New Year Marcus PS: Most of you whose names are on the Regional contacts list, should already have received a Happy New Year welcome package. If you are not one of these lucky guys/girls I was unable to figure out your address. If you want to be in loop, next time, either publish your address on the Regional Contacts page or sent me a PM.

Maybe i could help with little things?
Hi,
i hope this is the right way to ask this question, sorry if not!
Since i used first time Ubuntu (7.04) i am a fan from it.
So 3 years ago i changed from electrican into the IT and worked as CCM in a handy-software company and found out that i love programming (it was only heterogene shell scripting, but i have unix-experience).
Now i am on the way to get an Oracle Certified Professional Java Programmer (OCPJP) but i have less experience in java.
During this reason i am searching for a way to get this experience and to give something back to the ubuntu community.
Maybe i could help with things where real professionals already got bored from it.
I would also be interrested to work on harder projects so far i am able to and dont get a applied load to this projects.
Best Regards
Alex
