I have been dragging my feet but, with your posting, got gpg and got to the first step of you slides, gpg --gen-key At that point, I could not remember what default type you had recommended. I realize this is not critical, but like to stick to the same as the rest of the crowd in a KISS mode. :-) So, if you'll pick a default, I'll go on to the next step and report back for help at the next stumble :-) Oh Yes. Count me in as interested! Thanks for volunteering. doug

I'd be game. Who wouldn't want to travel to Worcester with passport in hand? ;) BTW: I ran the 2 keysignings at LISA 03 and had http://www.biglumber.com/ recommended to me as a useful site to organize key signings in the future. I haven't poked around it too much, but it may make life easier. :) -- Randomly Generated Tagline: How do Crays and Alphas handle the POSIX problem? -- Larry Wall in <199709050042.RAA29379(a)wall.org>

Who wants to do a PGP Keysigning? It would involve advance preparation from everyone who would like to participate. By now I'd imagine most of you have gotten your feet wet with GnuPG :-) If not, see: http://www.wlug.org/files/pgp-slides/index.html If there is interest, please let me know in the next couple days so I can organize the procedure and send out instructions.

Next meeting - topic?

by Andy Stewart

HI all, We have a meeting coming up on Thursday, April 22, but we have neither a topic nor a speaker. Since I am fully consumed in my job search and the layoff process, I won't be able to do a presentation this month. I am seeking a volunteer - please?? :-) Now, now, don't push and shove, I know many of you are eager for such a challenge. Please contact me by email and we can work out the details. Thanks in advance! Andy -- Andy Stewart, Founder Worcester Linux Users' Group Worcester, MA USA http://www.wlug.org

Re: [Wlug] 64 bit architechture

by Karl Hiramoto

my deskdtop has Kernel 2.4.22 and the config has processor options for AMD64. You might be best though with a 2.6.X kernel though I'm running 2.6.3 in gentoo-dev-sources now on my laptop, and it is going very well. > Greetings all; > > Sorry i've not been able to attend the meetings in a while... still trying > to get past some health problems... > > can any one tell me which kernel version would be suitable for a machine > with 64 bit architechture? > > thanx in advance > > dave goss > > assimulation is futile > > > _______________________________________________ > Wlug mailing list > Wlug(a)mail.wlug.org > http://mail.wlug.org/mailman/listinfo/wlug > -- Karl Hiramoto <karl(a)hiramoto.org> Work: 978-425-2090 ext 25 Cell: 508-517-4819 Personal web page: http://karl.hiramoto.org/ AOL IM ID = KarlH420 Yahoo_IM = karl_hiramoto

Re: [Wlug] 64 bit architechture

by Gregory Boyce

64 bit architectures have been supported for a rather long time in Linux, depending on the arch. If you're compiling a new kernel, I would suggest the 2.6 series (2.6.5 is the current version). It has a lot of improvements and is much speedier. I'm not sure which 64 bit arch you're talking about, but you may need patches to get the kernel fully stable. There are seperate sets of PPC/PPC64, Alpha and Sparc64 patches. There are probably some out there for ia64 (Itanium) and x86-64 (Athlon64) as well.

Looking for a used power supply

by Mike Peckar

One of my clone's power supplies died - it's a standard PC-like power supply, but the motherboard connector has 20 pins. I had some similar power supplies lying around, but they had more/different motherboard pinouts.. I'm willing to trade for a free beer after the next meeting.

free stuff

by Scott Venier

I'm currently in the process of moving into a new apartment and have a couple of boxes worth of stuff that I don't really feel like packing up and moving. That means it's time for the annual WLUG freestuff shuffle. ;) http://www.scooter.cx/~scott/freestuff First come, first serve. Act quickly, and I can even bring it to the meeting tomorrow evening. Act less quickly, and we can meet some other time. Act slowly, and I have to lug it into the new apartment. That's no fun. If you're not local, or know someone who's not local that wants something, I'll ship as long as I get paypal'd the cost of shipping. Anything that's not claimed by Friday is getting put up on craigslist, so don't delay. Scott
