REMINDER: Upcoming Meeting Thurs Jan 7, 2007

by Andy Stewart

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 HI Everybody, This is your monthly reminder (hand generated) regarding our upcoming WLUG meeting, to be held on Thursday, January 7th, 2007, at 7:00 PM in the Access Grid Room on the WPI campus in Worcester, MA USA. Many of you have suggested some good topics in our recent email threads. I propose that this meeting be a round table discussion of those and any other topics of interest. I'll bring my new laptop for discussion as well. It is a Linux Certified LC2464T running Kubuntu. However, I hope somebody has a DVI-SVGA adapter which I can borrow for the meeting, since I don't yet have one. Since this is my first experience with a Debian type of distribution, I could offer my first impressions. More info here: http://www.linuxcertified.com/linux-laptop-lc2464t.html If the discussion runs dry, ask me if I passed my Amateur Radio technician exam (which I'm taking on Wednesday). I'm curious to see what I can do with this and Linux. I can also give an update on the kernel device driver that I'm writing for the Delcom USB I/O demo board. I am planning to do a full presentation on this sometime soon, after I get more stuff working. A couple of simple features are working right now. Perhaps I'll do this for either the February or March meeting. More info here: http://www.delcom-eng.com/productdetails.asp?productnum=802004 As always, we'll adjourn to the Tech Pizza Restaurant on Highland Street for some discussion afterwards. All are welcome to attend! See ya later, and Happy New Year!

Must one be a REAL pro? The software is basically the same, but the product goals are different. You can run any kind of installation on either, but you won't get finger-pointing support and a long lifetime from Fedora which means you'll need to upgrade the OS every year or so to keep on top of security issues and bugs that are fixed, unless you want to fix things yourself. RHEL gives you 5 or more years of support. I can give a brief update on the current events in Fedora-land if anyone is interested. There are lots of interesting things happening right now, like the merger of Core and Extras, and the opening up of Core to all Fedora contributors.

How about RedHat Linux vs RedHat Fedora Core Linux. Is it possible to run a professional installation based on Fedora Core? Must one be a REAL pro? Ken Jones
