Linux Cartoon in TG
by Keith Wright Feb. 7, 2002

Feb. 7, 2002

Check out page C3 of the 2002-02-05 Worcester Telegram and Gazette to see a cartoon "The 5th Wave" by Rich Tennet: Four guys sit around a table, one is shuffling cards and says: "It's called 'Linux Poker.' Everyone gets to see everyone else's cards, everything is wild, you can play off your opponent's hands, and everyone wins except Bill Gates, whose face appears on the jokers." -- -- Keith Wright <kwright(a)free-comp-shop.com> Programmer in Chief, Free Computer Shop <http://www.free-comp-shop.com> --- Food, Shelter, Source code. ---

It's going to be at Stratus Technologies. If you check the www.wlug.org web page, there's a link to the directions. I'll put you on the list that you need a "surgeon" to look at your laptop.

Getting D-Link DWL-650 card configured
by Bill Brinkmann Feb. 1, 2002

Feb. 1, 2002

Has anyone on the list been successful in configuring this card? The drivers load and the card is recognised but I am having difficulty comparing the configuration options available under Linux to Win2000. I am running a dual boot PC and the card runs under Win2k. My Linux version is Mandrake 8.0.
