Upcoming meeting - a potential topic - on Wed Oct 15th 7:00 PM
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 HI all, I was hoping that we could talk about the upcoming Intrepid Ibex release of (K)Ubuntu. I loaded this software onto my laptop, but unfortunately, I cannot get dual monitors working, and that means the projector won't work with my laptop in its current state. I've seen a lot of bug reports and complaining about this problem, but nothing that I've tried will make it work. If/when I do get it working, I'll bring my laptop to the meeting, but it is not looking promising. Failing that, as a backup, if anybody has a laptop that is running this software, and has its output VGA port configured for 1024x768@60Hz (and tested prior to the meeting!), and would like to lead a discussion, please let me know. Otherwise, I'm open to other suggestions. Note that whatever the topic, our meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, October 15th, at 7:00 PM. See ya there! Thanks!

(I am running Intrepid, although at the time I upgraded, some things broke between Hardy and Intrepid, that I'm still working out. Dual-head *does* work for me, with nvidia-settings, however I can't make the meeting) On the note of the Intrepid Release, the Mass LoCo team is holding another release party (public invited!) Globe Bar & Grill 565 Boylston St Boston, MA Thursday October 30, 7pm, upstairs in the back (balcony area overlooking the bar) Last time we had several people show up from the local Canonical office, as well as a few visiting brits. Twas a grant time all around. -- Aaron Haviland 34 Wayne Ave, Dudley, MA home: [508] 943 - 7974
