Linux available in course rooms 3 and 4

Due to an increased demand regarding the availability of Linux computers usable for courses, a Linux operating system (ZDV Linux Desktop), which may be started as an alternative operating system on our course room computers, has now been made available in course rooms 3 and 4.

This has been signposted on the doors of course rooms 3 and 4. Documentations about starting the course room computers using Linux, as well as about shutting down Linux and restarting the computers using Windows, are to be found on the walls of these rooms (in German and English), as well as on the following web site:

In case you are interested in using Linux as an alternative operating system in other course or pool rooms,  please, contact our helpdesk:
