Introduction
Welcome to the website of the Diablo Valley Linux Users Group! We're a group covering the south-east San Francisco Bay Area — Concord,Pleasant Hill, Martinez, Walnut Creek, and nearby areas in Contra Costa County — aiming to advocate and spread Linux, do LUG events in the Diablo Valley area, and have plenty of fun while we're at it!
Weekly Meetings
Purpose: discuss Linux-related news, have time for users to present or discuss issues, "drop-in" Linux support if people are around to help
Location: Caffe La Scala (Yelp link, Google Maps) at 1655 N Main St (intersection with Civic Drive), Walnut Creek, CA. It's a coffee shop in downtown Walnut Creek. Free wifi. Good food (soup, pizza, sandwiches; includes vegetarian options) and drinks.
Time: every Friday at 6:00 PM. Meetings are informal and generally last from one to three hours, depending on attendance, but it's perfectly fine if you can't stay the whole time.
