Possible swap meet?

by Clint Moyer

As there is currently (AFAIK) no topic for the next Wednesday's WLUG meeting, I'd like to propose the possibility of a kinda sorta swap meet. I'm probably not the only person with an assortment of PC parts of dubious value. However one man's trash is another's treasure. Perhaps interested parties could bring their old parts to the meeting for possible exchange for someone else's. Is this practical, feasible, desireable or not a good idea at all?

nvidia with X

by Brad Noyes

Hi all i've been struggling with trying to get nvidia's drivers to work for my TNT PCI card. The install goes fine, but when i startx, i only get a blank screen. Looking at the Log, i don't see any fatal errors. When i kill X (from a remote machine using ssh) my screen displays a few dozen vertical lines, and no console. I'm not very fluent in X, perhaps someone can spot an error in the config, or log file. Thanks, --brad

OpenOffice Macros

by Wesley Allen

Hi everyone, I'm just sitting here doing some work and realized something. I should be able to reduce my keystrokes a LOT by writing some macros that would allow me to "quick change" my fonts in OpenOffice. I'm doing some research right now, but I never learned VB (which, I assume, OpenOfficeBasic is a derrivitave of) so I'm starting cold. Has anyone out there written some macros for OpenOffice? All I need is the ability to switch quickly between: English, Greek, and Hebrew. I'm not sure how to start. Like I said, I'm doing the research, but any hints and/or examples you all could share would be WONDERFUL. Thanks everyone, Wes
