Ubuntu Forums Interview
Please meet with tinivole (http://ubuntuforums.org/member.php?u=490875), one of the forums moderators from UK. He's ibuclaw on IRC. Tinivole has been a wonderful addition to the Staff. He has many skills, from computer engineer to musician and programmer. He's also a member of the Ubuntu Forums Beginners Team, always helping on both the forums and IRC. Before running a real-time tweaked ubuntu kernel, he first used debian, until he installed Hardy alpha 1. "The rest is history", as he puts it.

Tutorial of the Week
May 18, 2009.
This week's featured tutorial is "Comprehensive ndiswrapper troubleshooting guide" by pytheas22 (http://ubuntuforums.org/member.php?u=358340). This tutorial is well written, regularly updated and supported, and has been very popular. If you have troubles configuring ndiswrapper even thought it properly installed, this is the place to look at. Wireless is just a few steps away!
