Re: [Wlug] code review / process flow tool?

by Karl Hiramoto

I recently started using Trac http://www.edgewall.com/trac/ with a subversion code repository. Not sure if it meets your needs, or if you can adapt to work with it.

Re: [Wlug] Seeking someone to install SuSE Linux

by Jared Greenwald

I'm surprised that no one has suggested ubuntu (ubuntulinux.org) I had that installed on my Compaq Evo N600c for a while before reverting back to Gentoo. (I'm normally a Gentoo user everywhere, but Ubuntu is just so easy, quick and painless I had to give it a shot.) I'd have to say its about the easiest distro to install. There is even a version that comes with KDE pre-setup called Kubuntu (kubuntu.org) You can even try the livecd to see if it can detect all the hardware on your laptop. The standard (non-livecd) installer uses the same logic to do the install, so if the livecd works the real install should as well. The thing that will take time is the actual download of the livecd and installer cd. -Jared On 10/8/05, Andy Stewart <andystewart(a)comcast.net> wrote: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > > HI everybody, > > Mel Korman came to his first WLUG meeting this past Wednesday asking for > our help to get Linux installed on his laptop.

Seeking someone to install SuSE Linux

by Andy Stewart

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 HI everybody, Mel Korman came to his first WLUG meeting this past Wednesday asking for our help to get Linux installed on his laptop. Those of us who attended the meeting thought that his RedHat 9.0 might be too old for its installer to comprehend the external USB hard drive on which he had hoped to copy Linux, so I gave Mel the SuSE 9.3 Pro CDs which I had at the time, in the hope that he'd have a better time with the installation. Mel gave it a try at home but things are not working. Mel has offered to pay someone who would be willing to get Linux installed on his Thinkpad laptop (where Windows is also installed). If you are interested in helping Mel, please contact him directly at finkor(a)verizon.net. Thanks!

Meeting minutes from earlier this week

by Andy Stewart

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 HI everybody, We had our meeting in one of the rooms right off of the Morgan Hall dining area. I think there were 7 or 8 of us, with two newcomers (welcome!). The discussion started with GRUB and some of its more interesting features vs. LILO, such as command line editing and adding graphics to the background. I had made a GRUB bootable CD prior to the meeting. GRUB has a large number of features, and we touched on only a few. After that, we somehow ended up on the topic of VNC: http://www.realvnc.com http://www.tightvnc.com <-- There was also interest in the "suspend to disk" feature of my laptop, which actually worked in a live demo. One person asked if it was possible to do this on a desktop machine (I don't think so....). In addition, Mel K. (newcomer) brought his laptop, onto which he wanted to install RedHat 9.0, which was having trouble recognizing his external USB hard drive. I gave Mel my SuSE 9.3 pro CDs and asked him to give that a try. Mel said that he'd keep us apprised of his progress. Pizza / soda followed at the Tech Pizza restaurant where we've gone after the last several meetings. Mel mentioned that he has interest in VistA (open source medical software). Try http://www.vistasoftware.org and google turns up other seemingly related links. Later, Andy - -- Andy Stewart, Founder Worcester Linux Users' Group Worcester, MA, USA http://www.wlug.org -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFDRx4CHl0iXDssISsRAgHDAJ9ZQ4B0Morwv7EcxvAicO9fCxl2LgCdFxFg 5z9ZHpXjfJMuedYXi0ySZMI= =fVQp -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Just wanted to say that the "suspend to disk" feature is available on a desktop machine. With Gentoo I use the 'suspend2-sources', and have had no problems with hibernating both my Athlon 64 desktop computer, nor Pentium3 laptop. A good howto is available on the Gentoo Wiki site, http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Software_Suspend_v2 The instructions are fairly informative, that even non-Gentoo users should be able to use the howto as a stepping stone to getting the feature into their kernel. Hope this is of some help. -- Jon Gaudette

Upcoming WLUG meeting reminder

by Andy Stewart

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 HI everybody, Our next WLUG meeting is nearly upon us. Let's see if I can announce the date correctly this month: :-) Wed Oct 5th 2005 7:00 PM The theme of this meeting will be "What is the theme of this meeting?". As of late, that has been a familiar theme. Still, we manage to have fun both during and after the meeting, and that's a good theme (uh, thing)! Without intending to sound like a looping MP3, I'm always looking for someone to lead a talk at the meeting. I don't think I've ever turned anyone down so don't be shy. Having said that, I'm sure someone will come up with some wild idea just to be the first to get turned down. In the absence of a formal speaker, we can start by informally discussing GNU GRUB (http://www.gnu.org/software/grub) That topic will eventually lead us to other tangential topics. I was recently contacted by a person (Mel) who is having some trouble with Debian Sarge on a laptop. The difficulty has to do with loading X onto the laptop, which Mel will be bringing to the meeting. I hope a couple of Debian users appear at the meeting and can help Mel with this problem. At this meeting, I'll bring two books for the zero cost raffle: Linux Quick Fix Notebook Bruce Perens' Open Source Series Author: Peter Harrison Publisher: Prentice Hall http://www.quickfixnotebook.com Technical Writing (for Engineers and Scientists) Author: Barry J. Rosenberg Publisher: Addison Wesley http://www.awprofessional.com/title/0131498630 That's about it - see you at the meeting!
