Another web form, Andrew? ;-) Does anyone have a URL for a list of computer shops in the area - and especially those that understand Linux? Perhaps this could be another page on the ALUG website.

Is that UEA at Colchester? If so, I'll come.

IF YOU ARE NOT THE NAMED ADDRESSEE YOU MUST NOT USE OR DISCLOSE SUCH INFORMATION ---------- From: MJ Ray[SMTP:h089@mth.uea.ac.uk] Sent: 18 April 2000 20:32 To: alug(a)stu.uea.ac.uk Subject: [alug] ALUG 1up -- regularising things Hi all, to both the 20 or so that made the Aylsham meeting and the rest of you out there on the mailing list, (yes, you can probably consider yourselves all "members" of ALUG, whatever that means!) After ALUG28, some of us hung around and discussed where the group should go from here. It's now a year since a few of us started tentatively making connections and organising the first meeting at Woodbridge, and there's a general feeling that we should start to gear up as Linux is beginning to hit the big time. There's also still the equally strong conviction (from myself and BJ at least!) that we still need to avoid committee-ism and keep this thing running in the vaguely anarchic Open Source spirit. One of the main points suggested is to make the meetings regular monthly affairs. I think we're currently intending to hold them on the third Sunday afternoon of each month, alternating between UEA Union House and Syleham Computer Club at first. I'll confirm Union House tomorrow hopefully. BJ? If anyone else has a venue we can work into the routine, shout now. Talks were another strong suggestion. Probably at most two talks of at most 20 minutes at each meeting. Hopefully, this way, we can cover common questions like dialup, printing, sound, desktops, getting started, etc I'm tentatively prepared to do some... can we put a "talks wanted" and a "talks offered" form on the site, Andrew? In the organisation, we need to divide up the major linux publications and websites between us and make sure that all of them get each meeting announcement. If you're up for being an ALUG rep to one or more places, shout now. The other side is to print more posters for each meeting. Gareth foolishly said he could get some posters designed and uploaded as PostScript -- we'll hold him to it and then we can print them off and put them in local computer shops, etc. Of course, we'll need to keep track of where they've been posted. Another web form, Andrew? ;-) OK, that'll do for now. Discussion to the list. Flames to /dev/null. Abuse to me ;-) MJR [ This email came to you via the Anglian Linux User Group list ] [ If you only wish to recieve event announcements, email the ] [ SUBJECTs of "unsubscribe alug" and "subscribe alug-announce" ] [ to listserver(a)stu.uea.ac.uk -- We do need your support, tho' ] [ This email came to you via the Anglian Linux User Group list ] [ If you only wish to recieve event announcements, email the ] [ SUBJECTs of "unsubscribe alug" and "subscribe alug-announce" ] [ to listserver(a)stu.uea.ac.uk -- We do need your support, tho' ]

Hi Guys, Just thought I'd introduce myself. I'm Mark Wilkinson, I do RedHat stuff and I live in Peterborough. I'm married and I have 2 kids, 2 cats and a rather stupid dog. Am in the process of (re)building a little p150-base redhat box. In addition to this, I'm looking after 2 other machines, one out on the 'net and another one doing mailserver duty on a client site. Cheers.

Scary X problem
by Adam Bower 09 Apr '00

09 Apr '00

Hi all, I just noticed that when I'm connected to the net and startx a load of data goes out and then in again according to the lights on my modem, I have no great knowl edge of X and would like some pointers to whats happening if possible. I'm running Debian frozen at the moment with a home brew kernel and Ipmasquerade and firewalling setup (I hope fairly securely) I'm just really paranoid though Are there any good sites for info on X? or at least books as the man pages are a bit daunting at the moment. see ya all later Adam [ This email came to you via the Anglian Linux User Group list ] [ If you only wish to recieve event announcements, email the ] [ SUBJECTs of "unsubscribe alug" and "subscribe alug-announce" ] [ to listserver(a)stu.uea.ac.uk -- We do need your support, tho' ]

07 Apr '00

Hi all, Just checked http://www.anglian.lug.org.uk and Andrews got the map up. The friendship club is at junction of Yaxely's lane, Pound Lane and Mill road on the top right hand corner of the map. Any further questions for me to answer?

Alug 6
by Adam Bower 07 Apr '00

07 Apr '00

Hi all, I'm going to cancel the venue for Alug now due to a lack of enthusiasm. If I'm wrong then let me know asap, It's just only two people have muttered anything to the effect that they are coming, Let me know though if its just everyone going on holiday/home in their uni easter break. I'm sorry if I sound pessimistic but it looks as though the current part of the mail archive is broken and everything looks grim.
