[mdlug] Kerbal Space Program at ConClave

[gib at juno.com]

We are planning to run a room at ConClave as part of the MDlug meeting OCTOBER 10TH. We'd like to have a few computers that can be set up for people to come in and play a computer game called Kerbal. Here is an email with some specific details on software that we want to address. Anyone interested?  I can provide a few computers . . .

Gib,
 
What flavor of Linux were you going to have running on the laptops for Conclave?
 
I'm running KSP on Ubuntu - I need help getting the ALT key to work right under Kerbal Space Program - Ubuntu has some default functionality for the ALT key that I have tried (unsuccessfully) to turn off...
 
I&rsquo;m looking into getting 4 licenses for the full app.
 
There are some mods that will be absolutely necessary: http://www.curse.com/ksp-mods/kerbal
