When is next meeting and where is the next meeting
by permanent＠altavista.net 28 Apr '01

28 Apr '01

The Title says it all I think, "When is next meeting and where is the next meeting" anyway I have yet to go to one of your meetings, now I am out of manchester I thought I should join my local linux users group. I have been using Linux since early 1998 but with no previous UNIX experiance still feel a little bit of a begginer, I am looking to get some C++/C work in UNIX as I have had my fill os Microsoft windows programming (Delphi was fine just the OS was a biit limited). I am currently writing my own Delphi Like classes in C++ for a project to get me familier with the language. Chears Owen S.

Just as soon as the site sorts its DNS out, that is. www.alug.org.uk and www.anglian.lug.org.uk currently disagree. -- MJR

PPC Linux stuff for use on a Tivo
by Chris Glover 26 Apr '01

26 Apr '01

Hi, Does anybody know of a small Linux distro that will run on PPC processors? I only need small sections from it like gcc and perl. Reason being, I have a Tivo and I want to add some more functions to it, eg get it to generate a web page that tells me what it's recorded. OK, I know it's sad, when I could just use the menus, but it runs Linux...therefore it's hackable :-) Thanks Chris *************************************************************************** E Mail Chris(a)glovercc.clara.co.uk WWW http://www.glovercc.clara.co.uk ICQ 18054759 Someday, we'll look back on this, laugh nervously and change the subject. -Anon

I didn't realise it was changing. http://www.anglian.lug.org.uk/ is, was and remains the correct address to use. We've just moved from Martyn's bleeding-edge.net server to a drake.org.uk one and it's taking a while to update DNS, it seems. -- MJR

Re.Poster: sorry a bit patchy, I'm not much good at that kind of stuff. Plus I'm in a hurry after being bored for ages - I sit here helplessly month after month having various "upgrades" done to my computer whether I want them or not....from win95 to Win98 to WinME, then Office 97 up to Office2000 which has just been installed and so far i am unable to administer my own database and it all seems to be operating at the speed of a slug. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. The installation has a GUI like a 5yr old's rendition of cubism. Needless to say we have a winNT server, which needless to say crashes on a regular basis. The word "linux" brings a sneer to the lips of the administrators, however, and I have to conduct my experiments in a furtive corner of my office. Rant over, back to work (if I can get anything to, that is...) Jen. PS.Glad u like cd, David. Turn up the bass.

If you wish to have the YAC number redirected to someone for sunday so that people visiting the website can have a point of contact then let me know the number it needs to point at and I'll change it via the YAC website. Cheers, Ben
