Thanks for the suggestion. I wrapped the URL in double quotes and ran 'file'
on the downloaded result. It is an mp4 so I renamed it so it makes sense.

Wes,
Yep, quotes make the difference. I didn't pay attention to the string and

are you trying to install the 173 driver from the .run file you listed?
an 8000 series card should use either 306.x or 340.x series drivers. 173 is
a transitional version that overlaps and is not part of the official
support cycle. On ubuntu 173 does some really psychadelic stuff with the

I just got off of Michael B's demo of this. It is quite similar to
Zoom/Hangouts and no, making something "open source" does not make

I see that several PLUG members are researching an alternative to in-person
