Upcoming meeting activities - ideas needed

by Andy Stewart

Hi everybody, I'm starting to plan for the next two or three WLUG meetings. I wanted to have them planned in advance, as I did with the first few meetings of the year 2003. Here's a summary of what we did (or tried to do): Jan 03 - Handhelds and Linux with Wes Allen's IPAQ (good meeting!) Feb 03 - LAN Party (not well attended, unfortunately) Mar 03 - maddog speaks to WLUG Can somebody tell me why the LAN party was not well attended? I'd like to plan meetings that you folks *want* to attend. :-) I hope to schedule activities for the April, May, and June meetings. Here are some ideas which I've culled from past e-mails on this subject: o security / ip tables meeting / firewalls (should we ask Bob Ziegler to return?) o printer drivers, namely gimp-print or foomatic If you have other ideas, or if you would like to volunteer to give a talk, please let me (or the list) know.

Reminder: Upcoming meeting Wed. March 26th 7 PM

by Andy Stewart

Hi Everybody, I'm sending out this reminder early in the hope that we'll have alot of people coming to this WLUG meeting. At this meeting, our guest speaker will be Jon 'maddog' Hall. maddog is the executive director of Linux International and a great speaker. He has spoken at two (or three?) previous WLUG meeting and we're happy to have him back again. The meeting will be held in Kinnicutt Hall on the WPI campus in Worcester, MA (the usual place). If you need directions, they can be found on the WLUG website. Light refreshments will be served, and I'll bring a couple of items for the free (as in beer) raffle. After the meeting, we'll go out for pizza and beer at the Boynton Restaurant. Please pass the word around to all of your Linux friends!

Re: [Wlug] reaction-diffusion program

Andy, This program makes some pretty neat graphics, but it's very limited. I can choose the number of cells in x and y axes, and it makes spots or stripes. I have a qualitative understanding of it, but I don't know the math. A friend of mine said she'd look around for a book that explains it.

Got it! I have to run two x servers at the same time (didn't know I could do that), the first one in TrueColor and the second in PseudoColor by starting the second one with startx -- :1 -bpp 8 and the program runs ok. This is cool. Now all I need to do is figure out what reaction-diffusion means. I saw the math for it, and um, it looks like Greek to me. Anybody know anything about patterns of animal coat spots/stripes? Can anyone here figure out the mathematics of acupuncture point locations? (I know, I'm in way over my head here.)

Ping pong is very important in the workplace. Nothing short of a high end time scheduling software package should do. However, given the budget requirements for the former, I would recommend and have been using Webcalendar on my site and like it so far: http://webcalendar.sourceforge.net/ There is a live demo there as well, but sometimes the language is not english. In that case, find the link for the login, demo/demo is usr/pw, and then find the link for prefs where you can change it to english. BR

RE: [Wlug] reaction-diffusion program

Here are a couple of things to check: - XAllocColorCells works with a PseudoColor visual. You may be running in TrueColor. Use xdpyinfo to find out. (grep for Color) - If you are in PseudoColor mode, you might not have enough free colors left. You might want to start a plain X session (no netscape etc) with a window manager like fvwm or twm. If you are familiar with vnc, you can start a vncserver in PseudoColor mode using the -cc 3 option.

reaction-diffusion program

by Gregory Avedissian

I'm trying to run a reaction-diffusion modeling program. Below is the link to the tarball. I was able to install it after editing the makefile (added -LX11R6 to the LIBS section, per generic instructions I found on a google search for the error message I got when make failed.) Here's the current problem: When I try to run the program with the sample parameters given in the readme.txt, I get the error message, "bad status from XAllocColorCells Segmentation fault" Note: I get occasional segmentation faults, possibly due to a flaky power supply. Those seem to be less frequent since I vacuumed the dust and cat hair out of the box. Here's a link to the tarball, in case anyone has the time or inclination to mess with it and/or offer advice. Oh yeah, I'm running SuSE 7.2. http://www.gvu.gatech.edu/people/faculty/greg.turk/reaction_diffusion/code/… Thanks, Greg

shared calendar (web-based)?

by Bill Mills-Curran

I have some guys I work with who would like to be able to use a web-based tool to help schedule ping-pong games. Part of the requirement is that the players don't always have a partner and they would like to advertise available times so that someone else is encouraged to arrange a match with them. I already have an old web calendar program, which works, but I'm not very enthusiastic about it. Does anyone have a recommendation of a web tool that will work? FYI, I'm running Red Hat 8.0. TIA, Bill

Hey guys! I have a really short Java question for you... How does one make a system call from Java? I want to be able to run a Linux command, e.g., System("command"); in C. The idea behind this is that I'm writing an example Java program to install an application, for example Postfix, that I may want to use as an example for Students... Later!
