I have been using Ubuntu since DapperDrake in 2007. I previously experimented with a different flavor of linux but was so impressed by the Ubuntu forum that I switched over and have remained a devoted fan ever since.

Ubuntu Forums - drs305 I have been a frequent poster on the Ubuntu Forums, with my primary focus on helping others on the Absolute Beginners and General forums. I was made a moderator in April 2010. Documentation. I come from a non-IT background and develop forum guides and pages on the Ubuntu Forums and Ubuntu Wiki as I identify issues primarily affecting new users. When Grub 2 was introduced the lack of documentation was a motivating force for my creating many threads on how to work with the new bootloader. Eventually my work was adopted as the 'official' documentation on the Ubuntu community pages. - Forum Tutorials : HowTo: Set Gnome Calendar First Day of Week HowTo: Set Sessions Startup Order HowTo: Grub Menu Kernel Display Options/StartUp-Manager How To: Disk Full? - Check Your Trash Solving .dmrc and $HOME Permission Errors HowTo: Recover Lost Disk Space Expanding an Ubuntu System Partition Grub 2 Title Tweaks , Grub 2 - 5 Common Tasks Grub 2 - Password Protection , Grub 2 - Rescue Prompt Booting
