Hello all, I am very interested in attending the next CLUG meeting on Wednesday 2013 July 3 at 18:00 (6:00 p.m.)
I am very interested in learning some basic system administration skills so that I will not be so totally on my brother Mel for installing, upgrading, and configuring software. Here are a few examples of what I would like to learn how to do: I was able to get my Samsung printer - scanner working in Debian Squeeze but for some reason could only get my printer working on my desktop computer in Debian Wheezy. I would like to configure my Samsung Unified Driver to work with scanner functionality using something like simple scan. I was able to with the help of my brother to get a number of programs to work with my current hardware. I would like to install an interior design program that Kin Wong demonstrated a long time ago. I would like Kin to send me the URL off list so that I could model my apartment and print out the plans on my printer. Since the printer is working fine I just need to install the package again, but have misplaced the URL. I would like to know what kind of hardware to get so that I can replace my headphones with either bluetooth speakers or USB speakers of medium quality for a good price. I would love to take suggestions as to what kind of hardware to get as Debian Wheezy works very well for streaming video, extracting CD's to ogg files and playing them, and playing You tube videos. I have some cheap ten dollar speakers, but would like to have better quality sound to share with friends. I have already done so with my headphones, but my guest and I can not listen to the sound together - hence the desire to get speakers. Advice on hardware may be a little off topic at ClUG so you guys may want to contact me off list. I would also like to see a presentation on some LINUX topic by Robin and/or other tech savy women in CLUG. I know Robin is much much better than I am at system administration in LINUX. I hope to see you all at Wednesday's meeting, if others want to share some interesting ideas. I plan to bring a notebook.
