Perl programmer needed
by Sean 20 Mar '03

20 Mar '03

I have a web based project at work that requires a talented Perl programmer to build a user database/authentication scheme and perhaps tie that database into another or rebuild the whole thing from scratch. Familiarity with MySql a necessity, and would mostly be off site requiring only a few visits in the beginning (We are located in Whitinsville). Contact me off list to discuss rates, details, etc. Cheers, Sean

20 Mar '03

Is there a way that I can use up2date to manage multiple installations? The last time I used it, it indicated that it was limited to one machine per user email. TIA, Bill

workshop on hacking/free software
by Mike Gorse 20 Mar '03

20 Mar '03

Hi all, I will be facilitating a workshop at WPI on Saturday on hacking and the free software movement. It will be held as part of a conference on "tools and alternatives," so we will be introducing free software (to an audience which will not necessarily be that technically-oriented; the conference will have a broader focus than just computers) as an alternative to relying on restrictive commercial software. I am looking for someone to co-facilitate, so if anyone on here would like to do that or just has ideas on ways to convey our message and make the workshop interesting and interactive, then let me know. Tia. -- Michael Gorse / AIM:linvortex / http://mgorse.home.dhs.org --

Video-Out
by Wesley Allen 18 Mar '03

18 Mar '03

Hi everyone, First an iPAQ update, it's still running Linux, and I'm learning much about /proc (on a handheld.....weird) since I had to fix APM when I ran down the battery all the way. I LIKE it! Writing to my ext2 formatted mm-card is a bit slow (so I boot with a different kernel for software installs :-) ). Thanks for your help in getting it converted! Anyway, the question the day is this: My laptop has got a composite video-out in it. Is there any way to enable this in linux? I've seen some hints of this on the web, but if any of you have some expertise in this area it'd be great. Wes

rpm's for kernel modules?
by Bill Mills-Curran 17 Mar '03

17 Mar '03

I've dabbled in making rpm's from tar distributions a bit -- just enough to get a flavor of rpm building. One of the more challenging (frustrating?) rpm tasks is building an rpm for a kernel module. (Or maybe the tar/make package I'm starting from is just not well-designed.) Since the build can be kernel-specific, it's not even clear if building binary rpm's is worth it. Maybe a better idea is to concentrate on making the source rpm easily buildable so that the end user can generate an installation-specific binary rpm and get the benefit of rpm's over tar/make installations. Or, maybe it's not worth rpm's at all for kernel modules. Anyone have opinions on this? TIA, Bill
