Subject: [Wlug] Considering Linux for Recording Studio
Hey guys,
I'm about to acquire an Intel 1U PIII-650 256MB
10gig server, used (racked & left) for $250,
(*cheer*), and I had intended to use it for my audio
recording purposes. My first idea was ProTools and
Win2K on it, but as I'd always love a reason to …
[View More]go
full Linux, I wondered if there was a quality,
(hopefully free), recording/audio editing software
option out there. Suggestions would be appreciated!
:)

Any recommendations on what to use as a server app to stream audio from a
sound card input? I'm looking to send an MP3-encoded stream from a police
scanner radio over an internal network. I need to be able to use WinAmp and
XMMS as clients.
Been searching around and see lots of choices but looking for recommendations
on a simple and stable solution. Would prefer a non-GUI server app so I can
use a low-end machine but that's not absolutely necessary.
Thanks!

HI everybody,
This is a reminder about the upcoming WLUG meeting to be held this Wednesday
evening, May 15th, at 7:00 PM in Kinnicutt Hall on the WPI campus.
At this meeting, Andy Stewart will give a short presentation about his recent
experiences with PLIP (Parallel Line Internet Protocol). The Linux PLIP
software allows the user to connect two computers together via their printer
ports. A network is run between the parallel interfaces. If you ever wanted
to build a cheap, quick (as …
[View More]in rapid setup), and dirty point-to-point network
that actually functions, this is it.
If two people would like to bring their laptops, I'll bring the cable and we
can try a live demo. Be sure you have parport, parport_pc, and plip compiled
as modules. My cable has male DB25 connectors.
As I don't expect the PLIP presentation to be lengthy, if there are others who
would like to do a quick presentation, please let me know.
Afterwards, we'll visit the Boynton Restaurant for pizza and beer. All are
invited to attend.
See ya later!
Andy

I just installed driftnet (http://www.ex-parrot.com/~chris/driftnet/)
on a whim, but I can't seem to get it to show me any graphics, and I'm
fairly sure there is some going by. I'm running RedHat 7.1. Here's
the command I'm running as root:
./driftnet -v -i eth0
I get a blank pop-up, and the command window shows that it's seeing
traffic.
TIA,
Bill
Regarding the IDE hard drive going bad... can you elaborate more on the
symptoms?
I've been trying to track down system instability on one of my systems which
is running *cough* XP pro. I think I've traced it down to a bad hard drive,
but I'm curious what symptoms you were seeing.
Thanks.

HI Greg,
If you setup the parallel port connection between two computers (A and B)
and
insure that its working, when computer A locks up, you could try logging in
over the parallel port connection from computer B to see if it really locked
up or simply not responding to keyboard/mouse input.
Lockups really stink. It took me several weeks to finally figure out my
problem (an IDE hard drive slowly going bad).
Memtest is great - definitely try it out. I would also recommend the
Cerberus
Test Control System program (ctcs). It is the program used by VA Linux to
burn in their hardware. It does some *really* stressful things to the
hardware and will find anything that is flaky (supposedly).
Later,
Andy

HI gang,
I have one person who has confirmed that he will bring his laptop to the
meeting for a PLIP demonstration. Is there one other person who will do the
same?
Now, keep in mind that although one group member who shall remain nameless is
notorious for yanking on power cords (most especially while they are still in
use), it should be safe to be tethered to his laptop with my LapLink cable
for the demo at the meeting. You have been warned! :-)
Later,
Andy

Sometimes my computer locks up completely, so that neither the mouse nor
the keyboard will work. I'm running SuSE 7.2 on an Athlon 1.2GHz/Shuttle
Spacewalker AK12A, 256M memory.
It seems to happen when I'm in a chat room. Running Mozilla 0.9.9 with
recent Java plugin, also running Yahoo Instant Messenger, and it seems
like things were loading very slowly in the chatroom all the times this
had happened. I'm on a dialup line, so when I say slow, I mean like
go-and-make-tea slow. Otherwise,…
[View More] the connection is ok (46.6K) when
loading other pages.
ctrl-alt-backspace does nothing, alt-F2,3 etc. does nothing, same for
ctrl-D, ctrl-C, ctrl-Z, ctrl-alt-Fx. I had to hit the kill switch. This
last time, it wasn't too bad, but the time before this, rebooting to
linux was pretty scary. This only happens once every couple of weeks.
I'm suspicious of the keyboard, because it persisted once when I
rebooted to win98, then it cleared when I rebooted once more, first
wiggling the wire where it goes into the keyboard.
Does it sound at all like a software problem, or should I just ignore it
and replace the keyboard? And is there some other way to bail out that I
haven't tried?
Thanks,
Greg

Compaq out of Houston, TX is having a webcast auction on 5/14 of a bunch
of their stuff (check the equipment catalog), ranging from the office TVs
and video projectors, to monitors, servers, storage arrays, desktops,
individual cards, etc. Looks like some nice stuff. 8)
I thought that you guys might be interested in perhaps picking up
something, hopefully on the inexpensive side. Sorry for the late notice,
though.
