A one day Fedora Workshop was scheduled on October 11th 2014 at KKW College
Nashik [1].
After reaching one of the Reputed College of City it was an Small
Felicitation by HOD of MCS Department.
The Workshop Mainly was divided into 2 sessions of 2 hours each.
*Session I*
It was an introductory session to Open-Source and GNU/Linux. I started with
a small presentation explaining the History of Open-source and GNU, When it
was established and what are the goals of it. I focused on the four
features of FOSS i.e.* Freedom to use, freedom to examine , Freedom to
redistribute and freedom to modify*. Then I introduced the GNU/Linux, the
Linux Kernel, how it is built and how is the release process of the Linux
kernel with the short video[2]. Then I introduced the Fedora GNU/Linux
Operating system. I showed the live installation of the Fedora 20 distro
and also showed the dual boot process of installing Linux with other OS. I
showed the different Desktop flavors like GNOME, KDE, XFCE, MATE etc. After
Installation of the Fedora 20, I explained the basic commands with
examples, I focused on File processing commands and process monitoring
commands. I also explained the Features of Fedora and focused on 4 F's of
Fedora Project. I explained the *Freedom, Friends, Features, First.* I also
introduced the Fedora Project Community with all the SIGs and also
explained how to join Fedora Project with Fedora Account Systems. With the
Introduction to GNU/Linux with Fedora, Students asked me some basic
questions and I was happy to answer them in simplest Language few questions
were like how to change IP address etc.
*Session II*
Session II was focused on how to use Fedora, I started with the the
installation and un-installation of software's. Firstly I explained the
de-facto standard of Linux Software Installation and showed the
installation of GNOME IP messenger from source. Then I focused more on
showing the installation by command line and showed the installation,
upgrading and uninstallation by yum command. Installed the software VLC
with yum command i.e *yum install vlc* and also showed un-installation by *yum
remove* command. Also demonstrated the updating and searching for the
particular package with yum. Then I showed the Software Installation and
un-installation with *rpm* command for .rpm packages with the *archey*
package. Further I showed the simplest way by showing Gnome Software and
Yum Extender. In between there were few questions like how to install
windows software on Linux and I answered them. After installation I showed
how to use Text Editors like Vim, Emacs and Gedit. Then I explained step by
step procedure for how to compile and run programs of C, C++, Python, Ruby
and Shell. After that I spoke on Fedora Project Community and how one can
contribute to it. Shared the links of particular SIG's of Fedora Project.
At the end there were questions from students and I answered best of my
knowledge.
I conducted a small oral quiz and distributed the Fedora 20 DVDs and
Stickers to Students.
It was nice exprience and special one because of the support and guidance
of Fedora India Community.
