Weekly IRC reminder
by Neill Newman 03 May '04

This is the automated ALUG IRC meeting reminder sent to remind you that there is an IRC meeting tonight (Monday) at 8.00pm. The meeting takes place on the irc server irc.alug.org.uk in the #alug channel. Most IRC clients should allow you to get there with the commands "/server irc.alug.org.uk" and "/join #alug". Popular IRC clients include tkirc, bitchx, xchat and EPIC on Unix, and Mirc under windows. Here are some links to help you get started with irc. Unix http://www.xchat.org/ http://freshmeat.net/ http://www.epicsol.org/ Windows http://www.mirc.com (loads of help with irc for newbies!)

Who is coming on sunday?
by Syd Hancock 02 May '04

02 May '04

(I sent this on friday and only just noticed that it was not posted so I'm sending it again even though it is almost redundant now). So who is planning to come to the 5-year bash today? Also there was talk a few weeks ago of contacting original members to see if they could come, did anyone do that? Syd

irc.alug.org.uk DNS mapping
by Brett Parker 30 Apr '04

30 Apr '04

It appears that someone has changed the DNS mapping for irc.alug.org.uk to point at alug.org.uk rather than an OFTC server... Anyone know who, or why? I wouldn't have noticed but I use that to connect to oftc usually ;) Cheers, -- Brett Parker

RE : USb web camera
by Robert Frusher 29 Apr '04

29 Apr '04

With regards to the webcam.... I have a Labtec USB webcam that costs 20 quid from PC world etc. After a little googling I managed to download a driver for a Logitech webcam which is basically the same. I can get a stream from the camera now using gmplayer, and camorama. But apart from that it is pretty useless in Linux. I want a plugin for Gaim to play with MSN video messenging.... Rob

Listing?
by John Seago 29 Apr '04

29 Apr '04

I looked here, http://lugww.counter.li.org/addgroup.cms to see if we, (ALUG) were listed, under the heading East of England, only Bedfordshire appears. Perhaps someone with the necessary authority should consider listing us? -- John Seago

Fwd: Re: Join ALUG
by Syd Hancock 29 Apr '04

I've received the following email from "brodders" <brodders(a)mcmail.com> >> I'm trying to dispose of about 60 Computer Science books from the 80's to 90's. These are engineering related rather then C++ etc, so we're into the world of Systems Analysis, Z, complete systems engineering, databases, networking, all sorts. Pretty old stuff nowadays but much relevant if you're into doing things professionally. Can I give them away?? Well, libraries & the uni don't want them so it's skipping time. ALUG people can take their pick, if they want... << Please reply directly to brodders for more info. He is intending to be at the meeting on sunday afternoon at The City Gate. Syd

Linux Audio Developers Conference
by MJ Ray 29 Apr '04

29 Apr '04

This conference starts today and is available online as audio+webcam+IRC if you can't travel to Karlsruhe in time. There's an interesting-looking session at 12 noon tomorrow (assuming those are CET times) about debugging ALSA and Bob Ham talks at 15h. Maybe see you on IRC, if freenode doesn't free its nodes. -- MJR/slef My Opinion Only and possibly not of any group I know. http://mjr.towers.org.uk/ http://www.ttllp.co.uk/ for creative copyleft computing

Nelson Court - location and parking
by Syd Hancock 27 Apr '04

27 Apr '04

I've been editing some alug meetings web pages which should be on the main site within the next day or two. I'd like to put some information about finding Nelson Court and what parking is nearby. There is map of the campus available as a PDF file but I haven't found it very helpful. Pleae can anyone who knows their way around UEA send me - or post here - some directions for finding Nelson Court and also what parking is nearby? Thanks Syd
