Free Pizza will be provided!!!
|
||||
|
||||
The Linux Users Group (LUG) at UCLA invites you to attend the quarterly Linux
|
||||
Installfest! Please fill out the RSVP form to indicate your pizza preferences.
|
||||
|
||||
* Date: 2025-04-11 (Friday of Week 2)
|
||||
* Time: 6-9 PM
|
||||
* Location: Engineering IV (room TBD)
|
||||
* RSVP: [link](https://forms.gle/6XRzGgdqXddJJ76L9)
|
||||
|
||||
## General Info
|
||||
|
||||
LUG hosts a quarterly installfest on Friday of the 2nd week. We will start by
|
||||
giving a presentation on Linux to get newcomers up to speed. Then, attendees
|
||||
will be provided a USB drive and guided in dual booting their computers with
|
||||
Linux (most likely Ubuntu, Debian, or Linux Mint). However, you are welcome to
|
||||
bring your own flash drives and install any distro of your choice. Or if you
|
||||
don't feel comfortable with the possibility of losing their data, you can set
|
||||
up a Virtual Machine instead.
|
||||
|
||||
This time around, we have various Dell Precision workstations that we snatched
|
||||
from the med school's e-waste (lol).
|
||||
|
||||
The officers will also be doing a show-and-tell of their own hardware which
|
||||
they have installed Linux on. Experienced users are also encouraged to show off
|
||||
their own setups.
|
||||
|
||||
At the end, we'll have a SuperTuxKart LAN party with our freshly installed
|
||||
Linux machines.
|
||||
|
||||
## Past Installfests
|
||||
|
||||
You can view pictures from past installfests [here](https://linux.ucla.edu/zenphoto/).
|
||||
|
||||
## Note on Apple Silicon (M1-M4) Macs
|
||||
|
||||
Due to their custom Apple silicon, the only Linux distro which works on M1/M2
|
||||
Macs is the experimental Asahi Linux. There is no support for M3 or M4. You
|
||||
still have the option of setting up a Virtual Machine to run Linux so feel free
|
||||
to come and chat with us!

**IMPORTANT: PLEASE CHOOSE A STRONG PASSWORD FOR YOUR EMAIL ACCOUNT**
|
||||
## NEW: Multi-Factor Authentication
|
||||
|
||||
[](https://linux.ucla.edu/mediawiki/index.php/File:Image.png)
|
||||
The University is mandating that multi-factor authentication (MFA) be enabled for all email accounts by **May 1, 2025**. Specifically, we are using [Cisco Duo](https://duo.com/docs/duounix) as our MFA service, to be consistent with MyUCLA, UCLA Google Apps, and the UCLA Campus VPN.
|
||||
|
||||
Some hacking attempts on our email server
|
||||
Your cooperation is **required** because you will eventually have to manually enroll your mobile device over SSH. If you fail to respond by the deadline, we will be forced to close your email account.
|
||||
|
||||
No immediate action is required, because we are still waiting on the CS department to get in touch with Cisco and host their own Duo server. That being said, you must check your email inbox (or this page) regularly for future updates.
|
||||
|
||||
**For non-UCLA students**: Please install the Duo app on your mobile device ([iOS](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/duo-mobile/id422663827), [Android](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.duosecurity.duomobile&hl=en-US&pli=1)) at your earliest convenience if you haven't already.
|
||||
|
||||
**WE GET SEVERAL BRUTE FORCE ATTEMPTS EVERY DAY. IF THE HACKERS GET IN TO YOUR EMAIL ACCOUNT THEY WILL SEND SPAM AND THE CS DEPARTMENT WILL GET MAD AT US.** **Please use a secure password, otherwise we might have to restrict access to only people on the UCLA VPN.**
