Hi, With regards to the ongoing discussion of the anglian.lug.org.uk web site, would there be any objections if I moved the site (and DNS) onto my own server which can then be updated as and when either by myself or anybody that wants to add anything? I need to start filling up my lonely 17Gb hard drive with something! ;) Regards, Martyn

I'd just thought I'd pass on the following email message attached below. As a matter of interest, has a definite date been decided for the next meeting at the UEA? I'll need to make a move with regards to arranging the SuSE presentation and need to have definite dates and times ASAP.

Last Alug's photos on-line.. + SuSE presentation
by Martyn Drake 25 Jun '00

Hi, I've stuck the most recent photos of our last Alug meeting on my own, Red Hat server box running Zeus at:- http://www.bleeding-edge.net/alug/photos If things should go ahead for a meeting on the 19th July at UEA (at 2pm as a rough guide), Roger Whittaker has stated that it is very possible for him to do it at that date and time. If we need to move the date forward or backward, I'll contact Roger and let him know. Regards, Martyn

Administrivia: List Outage
by MJ Ray 23 Jun '00

23 Jun '00

There is an electrical shutdown at UEA this weekend, so the Student Union mailserver will be offline for the duration. This happens once a year and should not actually be visible other than a slight delay on list traffic (but I'm just announcing it so that you know why it's slow). If it's like last year, services may be restored by Sunday lunchtime. MJR

I've been having fun with bouncing and looping email for the last few days, but that should be fixed now (if you can see this email) and I'll try to sort this out today or Monday. MJR

Next meeting info?
by Martyn Drake 23 Jun '00

23 Jun '00

Hi folks, Firstly, for those that witnessed the death of my laptop on the last meeting - it's now been replaced by PC World with a spanking new one and hope this one doesn't die on me (at least for the next three years until I buy a new laptop!) Secondly, I'm going to get in contact with Roger Whittaker from SuSE to arrange the presentation for our next meeting. I'll need to know the date and time (and room number at the UEA) and I'll will definately go and book it and get confirmation. Regards, Martyn

How do I get rid of empty 15Mb Partition please?
by Terry Filby 22 Jun '00

22 Jun '00

Am getting on very well with Mandrake Lnx4Win - Linux on windows partition - but, on one of my previous abortive attempts to put Linux on a separate partition, I couldn't delete everything, and, despite going into Fdisk on Windows and in Linux I still have a 15Mb empty Partition. I have a 4.3 Gb HD with two Fat 16 partitions - 2047 on C:, 2063 on D: The empty partition is on D:, I have System Commander 2000 with graphic representation of the HD, and you can see the errant partition, but, if I try to amalgamate it in D:, it's got to be a Fat 32 drive, which I don't want. Any suggestions please? If I haven't made it clear enough, please e-mail with any queries. Everything works ok as is, but I don't like having 15Mb doing nothing that I can't delete! Terry
