--- author: Eric Wagoner date: '1999-11-05T08:00:49' draft: false title: Linux got me kicked out --- [Linux got me kicked out of Wal*Mart](http://www.honeylocust.com/walmart/) details the story of a laptop running linux, a quick-cam, and movies filmed at a Wal-mart. The movies themselves aren't that exciting (unless, perhaps, you're a Wal-mart junkie), but technical know-how that went into it and the run-in with the security guard make a good story.
