Hi gang, Just wanted to let you know that I signed all of the keys from the PGP key signing party and sent them to the gpg mit server. I am not sure how to confirm that I did it correctly, so if someone can check his key and let me know if I did alright I'd appreciate it. Also how do I check who has signed my key?

a) UPS talk? b) APC-w-USB ?

by Doug Mildram

doug> I got an idea for a WLUG talk, having trolled the SW-devel-mail-list and used sparingly the excellent APC-UPS free sw at http://www.apcupsd.com I've got a small-enough APC SmartUPS and a laptop or 2 I could do this on. What I don't have (or can't yank out of the lab here at work) COULD USE....dont really NEED: ....an APC UPS with the more modern USB port....reasonably small. (the SW supports serial/"COM1" cable/interface, or USB/HID... I'm very weak on the HID stuff, but it probably just works.) So this lure is to see who does have apc w/usb... and wants to try-and-or-demo this. and When's the june meeting ? (I forget what month the party is.)

I think resource settings "reside" in the X server at run-time, so you could try manually adding those particular ones like so, (with queries before and after for testing), $ xrdb -query $ xrdb -merge ~/.gv $ xrdb -query Then run gv again. If it works, maybe you could add it to your X startup, however that works on your $DISTRO+$DESKTOP+etc... In the past I've also used ggv, which is gnome-ified gv. -Jamie
