The season opened in March with a rich series of events:
![](pinguinoraspberry.png) * **Embedded Linux: a very small penguin** with Luca Ceresoli who illustrated how Linux is used in **embedded systems** and how to use **Buildroot** to give life to an ARM board.
## Embedded Linux: a small small penguin * **Introduction to Linux** was an introductory evening on **Linux** and free software.
*09 March 2016*
**Luca Ceresoli**, Head of Embedded software designer at Comelit S.r.l, will present: Embedded Linux: a small small penguin * **Community Wi-Fi networks: how they work (Ninux)** with Davide Rossin, an active member of **BgLUG**, who spoke about the topic of **community Wi-Fi networks** and the concept of **mesh network**.
*An embedded system is a computer but it doesn't seem.It can have infinite variants: peripherals, memories, form ... the only rule is that there are no rules!Let's find out how complex a tiny Linux system is.Then we find out how it can become simple with Buildroot by giving life to an ARM card.* We then continued in April with two meetings on making held by FABLAB Bergamo.
--- * **3D printing course with Open Source tools** with Simone Branchi who introduced us to the fascinating world of 3D printing made with Open Source tools. The meeting took place over two evenings.
![](3D-vasi.png) The following month, at the end of May, following the **Linux Presentation Day**, a:
## 3D printing course with open source tools * **Installation Party** was held with the entire BGlug team working to help anyone who wanted to install a Linux system on their PC.
_13 and 20 April 2016_
**Simone Branchi **, maker and head of the [Fablab Bergamo Machine Department] (https://www.fablabbgamo.it) and founder of 3DP Bergamo, will introduce us to the fascinating world of 3D printing made with open source tools. In June, two more events:
On the evenings of Wednesday **April 13**a nd Wednesday **April 20** The expert makers of Fablab Bergamo will provide the BGLUG members with a short but complete overview of the printing methods on the market, on 3D modeling and the use of theFilament fusion printer. * **Do-it-yourself media center** on the use of media centers, very easily installed on Raspberry PI
Below is the program of deepening evenings. * **NethServer, the easy-to-use Linux server distribution** with the founders of the software house who illustrated the qualities of the Nethserver solution, at Artilab.
**evening 1/2 - Wednesday 13 April 2016** The summer ended at Polaresco with a meeting on:
- 3D printing, uses and technologies.A general overview. * **Bitcoin, what it is and how to use it** with David Rossin who talked about the technology related to Bitcoin.
- 3D modeling: how to solve a problem.
- The 3D printer at first sight.
**evening 2/2 - Wednesday 20 April 2016** After the summer break, and after the conclusion of the Linux Day in October, two events closed the year:
- A car to handle carefully. * **oVirt Open your virtual datacenter** with Simone Tiraboschi and Andrea Flori, on the use of oVirt, a virtualization platform with multiple features, based on **KVM**.
- Pre print configurations.
- Start the first print.
- Post print configurations.
**The course is reserved for members of the Bglug** association (Bergamo Linux Users Group).If you are not already registered or have not renewed the registration for the year 2016, you can register or renew the registration by paying the membership fee during an ordinary Wednesday evening meeting (from 9.30 pm at the meeting room of thePolasco space).It will be possible to enroll in the BGLUG to participate in the course in question until Wednesday 6 April 2016. Further information on the event will be provided by e-mail to the members of the BGLUG members mailing list. * **Low-level code optimization** with Carlo Milanesi on the performance optimization techniques used by compilers or programmers in system programming languages.
To access the course, the partner of the BGLUG must **Book** The ticket [here] (https://www.eventbrite.it/e/biglietti-corso-stampa-3d-stramenti-pen-source-24039247035) and **present it** to both evenings of the event. See you next year, don't miss it!!!
The course does not include the first free print and automatic qualification for the use of 3D printers.
The use outside the proposed course is allowed to the members Fablab Bergamo who took the qualification test.This is to ensure greater security for laboratory users and reduce extraordinary maintenance due to an unaware use of the printer that can make the guarantee conditions decay.

## Community Wi-Fi networks: how they work (Ninux)
*23 March 2016*
**Davide Rossin**, active partner of the **bglug**, will tell us about **community wi-fi** networks, of the concept of **Mesh** network and of the Italian reality (**[Ninux.org](http://wiki.ninux.org)**).The meeting is also an opportunity for an open discussion on the antennas that could be installed in Bergamo and its province to start the initiative locally as already happened in other areas of Italy.

## Introduction to Linux
_11 March 2016_
The **Bergamo Linux Users Group** wants to dedicate an introductory evening to **Linux** and free software in general.The evening is mainly dedicated, but not only, to those who are approaching or to those who want to approach this operating system.
**Linux** has grown a lot in recent years becoming a mature, simple and reliable operating system for any area, both Home and Business.The time when only the "smonetts" could use it was far;There are still "difficult" distributions to manage for those who do not have in -depth skills, but there are also many distributions decidedly accessible and usable by anyone.
Today we all use **Linux**, often without knowing it: we find it in the network devices that we use at home and at work, in smartphones and tablets, in smart TVs, in appliances, home automation, cars and obviously on the serverswho manage the services we use daily (Google, Facebook and Dropbox to name a few).Why not start using it also on your PC?
To facilitate the approach, the main differences between **Linux** and other owner operating systems such as Windows or OSX will be explained, describing the pros and cons (exist? 😉).
Themes relating to **IT security** will also be deepened and there will be references to the very wide choice offered in terms of graphic customization and in general of the entire system.
In some ways **Linux** is the only operating system that is addictive, when you start using it hardly you can stop because you get to such a level of customization that becomes yours.No other owner operating system can give you the same feeling ... not even the most "cool" one (you understand which one? 😛).
Those interested can [register for the event] (https://www.eventbrite.it/e/biglietti-introduction-a-linux-24932399478) **FREE** followed by a large space of questions and answers to learn morefurther any aspect you are interested in.

## Installation Party
_25 May 2016_
After the [**Linux Presentation Day**] (http://www.bglug.it/2016/04/06/linux-Presente-Day-2016-by-bglug/) of Saturday 30 April and [Introductory evening to ** Linux**] (http://www.bglug.it/evento/intraduzione-a-linux/) of Wednesday 11 May, the **bglug** wants to dedicate an evening to anyone who wants to install **Linux ** on your PC or has already installed it but has some difficulties with peripherals or other aspects of the configuration.
Those who have been following us for years know that the **Installation Party** is a fixed point of the **Linux Day** that we do in October, but this year, given the aforementioned events, we want to double the effort and make available to usfor all those interested.
In truth, those who know us know that every Wednesday we are available to those interested in approaching this operating system, but the **Installation Party** is something special for the organization and resources put in place butespecially for the atmosphere that is created.
To all those interested, especially if they want to install **Linux** in dual boot with Windows, we recommend two fundamental operations to do **before coming** with us:
- Backup of all their data
- defragmentation of the disc which must be partially parted for the installation of Linux
If you are interested [subscribe] (https://www.eventbrite.it/e/biglietti-linux- Installation-party-2493884921) in order to give us the opportunity to better understand the resources we must make available.The event is obviously **free**.

The friends of [**Nethserver**] will come to visit us (http://www.nethserver.org/), the*community manager*and one of the main developers.We had the first contacts with them thanks to the fact that we use their distribution for our project [**Linux goes to school **] (http://bglug.it/scuole/).Subsequently we met them in person at the **Fadem 2016** of Brussels and we invited them to come and see us.
**Nethserver** is a **Linux** based on **centos** completely managed via **Web interface**. Created and supported by **Nethesis srl**, a Pesaro company that was born in 2003 using the opensource as a business model, it has beyond [3000 active installations in the world] (http://www.nethserver.org/Phone- home/Widget_MAP.TML) and, with the ease of use, it combines a huge variety of services by offering the possibility of being used even for only one of them.Some of the main services are:
- Domain controller
- Server file
- VPN (IPSEC or OpenVPN)
- Owcloud (to get your personal cloud)
- fax server (hylafax)
- Mail server
- Groupware
- Traffic Shaping
- Firewall
- Proxy and Content Filter
- DNS
- DHCP
At the end of the presentation, the **Nethserver** experts will be available for questions and clarifications.
Like all our events, this too is **free** and requires [mandatory registration](https://www.eventbrite.it/e/biglietti-nethserver-la-distribuzione-linux-server-semplice-da-utilizzare-25297322974).
