WELCOME TO ANOTHER ISSUE OF FULL CIRCLE.<br />

I<br />

t's another full house this month. We have Python, LibreOffice, VAX-VMS, Inkscape, Arduino,<br />

and an extra HowTo on using LaTeX. In reviews, I'm having a look at GoPanda (a Go client for<br />

IGS) and Art is reviewing Linux Lite.<br />

Charles (Linux Labs) has written an interesting article on testing and troubleshooting old hard<br />

drives. If you want to geek out on hard drive fetch times and such-like then this is definitely the<br />

article for you. Meanwhile, I try out the Android 'app' Debian noroot. It lets you install a slimmed<br />

down Debian on your Android device. And, as the name suggests, it does not require rooting your<br />

device.<br />

Speaking of devices; next issue, I'll have a review of the BQ Aquaris M10 Ubuntu Edition<br />

tablet. I'll be trying it as a tablet, and with a wireless/Bluetooth keyboard and mouse to see how it<br />

performs as a laptop/desktop machine.<br />

And, if you haven't yet given it a listen, try the <strong>Full</strong> <strong>Circle</strong> Weekly News. As I write, I've just<br />

released FCWN#1 3. Of course, by the time you read this I'll probably be releasing FCWN#1 6 or<br />

thereabouts. It's purposely kept short (under 1 0 minutes) and usually features around seven or<br />

eight news items. No fluff, nor chit-chat, just the best Ubuntu/Linux/FOSS news items of the<br />

week.<br />

UPDATE: As this issue comes to completion I'm sad to announce the passing<br />

of Brian Donovan who produced most of our ePUB and special editions. This<br />

issue is dedicated to him, and his family. My deepest condolences.<br />

All the best, and keep in touch!<br />
