Hi Felicia,<br><br>Its always nice to hear from enthusiastic people switching to Linux, especially Ubuntu. So first, welcome to Ubuntu's portion of the world of Linux! I hope it brings more enjoyment to your computer experience then alternatives.<br>
<br>Lets see, there are a number of consultants on the mailing list, but their availability varies. I am pretty sure someone will be able to do some in-person training/support. If no one else responds, let me know. Though I've been moving away from those type of activities, I can certainly help out. <br>
<br>Last, for the font and monitor issues, I am not sure if you are having specific issues or just looking for some guidance. If there are specific issues, and you can give some details, myself or others can certainly provide some online email help. This type of help might not be as important if someone has availability for you, but feel free to mail the list. <br>
<br>Best,<br>Rio<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Jan 18, 2009 at 10:51 AM, felicia wichrowski <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:felicia02652@yahoo.com">felicia02652@yahoo.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

<div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Greetings Ubuntu Enthusiasts!!<br>I
have just received my freedom with a DELL XPS M1530 laptop
after 10 years of windoz bondage. I am seeking to meet with
someone who is well educated in Unix/Linux (and Ubuntu) to address
these tasks:<br><br>Font and monitor display issues (for use with Scribus
and Gimp)<br>understanding F-Spot photo management ( or
alternative )<br>installing Compiz and getting that cube up and
running...maybe with the fishtank effects<br> ( love that
cube...it's like the Borg and I want to assimilate!) <br>importing my
music and organizing playlists on a flash drive<br>Getting
GNUcash installed...I will need to enter business data from
Quickbooks.<br>Possible help relaunching blog on Wordpress
platform.<br><br>I run a small seasonal business on Cape Cape Cod, so
I have an open schedule. I am willing to travel and provide
cash compensation to my Linux Geek. If you know of
someone who can assist me I will be ever so thankful. Thank you!<div> </div><p><span style="font-family: tahoma,new york,times,serif;"></span><span style="font-family: bookman old style,new york,times,serif;">Felicia</span><br>
