Hi,
Anyone on here using Charter Telephone VOIP service? I've currently
got Verizon, but the wife hates it because our phone lines get flaky
all the time, esp when it rains.
So I'm thinking to save money and combine all my stuff onto Charter.
I've already got High Speed internet and regular old cable. Not wild
about Digital Cable since I'm happy with Tivo and I don't want yet
another set top box to have to deal with...
So, any horror stories about Charter Phone VOIP quality and service?
Thanks,
John
I installed fedora 11 on my old laptop and turned back on glitch free
audio. It almost works perfectly. Sufficient that I probably
wouldn't bother turning it off now.
I think the hard drive is starting to fail so I decided to purchase a
new laptop. Since I'd like some 3D functionality now I decided to go
with the Intel GMA X4500. Unfortunately Fedora 11 stumbled here. I
thought the picture quality wasn't very good and found it was using
the vesa drivers not the intel drivers. Searching found that others
had the same issue but it worked on Fedora 10. Tried a Fedora 10 live
CD and the display was nice and sharp. Modified the xorg.conf to use
the intel drivers and Fedora 11 also became nice and sharp.
Anyway onto my question, has anyone played with the mingw32 cross
compiler on Fedora 11? I've created a simple hello world app and
cmake file (since I hate autotools). I've got it compiling by
creating a Toolchain file but it seems like that is something that
should be provided with the mingw32. Is there a standard Toolchain
file somewhere and I just haven't found it?

HI gang,
Please note that I've just updated the website with a meeting topic

meeting instead of the October meeting. maddog has visited WLUG on
previous occasions and is an excellent speaker. You won't want to miss
this meeting!

Anyone familiar with virtual machine manager and kvm.
I'm having some issues with a windows virtual machine. The system is
Fedora 11 and the virtual machine is Windows 2008 Server. If I start
the virtual machine from the virtual machine manager, it only has a
single cpu despite my setting it to eight. If I start the machine from
the command line, I can get four cpus but not eight. In both cases
windows seem to display the eight cpus in the device manager (or
whatever program it is). It has been suggest that windows was imaged
on a four core machine before being loaded on the eight core machine
and that something in windows is maxing at four cores. But that
doesn't explain why the virtual machine manager can only start one
cpu. I just played around on my home machine with a fedora 10 live cd
and it recognized the two cores on that machine and used them from the
virtual machine manager without problem. Also upped it to three cpus
without problem.

(I did goof last week as you may recall announcing 7/13,
but the plan remains: REALLY: 7/23 thursday. 6pm--9?whatever
and it's perfectly OK to be late. no RSVP required.
I'm ready for good or bad weather or both :)
I've setup tunes (linux/soundblaster/mp3's) in my 2-car garage,
with garage/protected space for picnic table and more. The BBQ grill needs
moving,
then everything will be together/nearby in the garage+driveway, or on the
lawn if we are blessed with suddenly perfect weather.The aboveground pool is
open too.
Bring your favorite beverages, friends, optional mp3's(on USB stick),
and a spare VGA M-M monitor cable for me if you found one in your junkpile
(I did get 3 already from Liz)
Text directions/phone#s again below for 540 Linden St, Boylston MA 01505 :

Hey Gang,
So is there any consensus on the BBQ being held tonight or postponed?
Thanks,
Tim.
