Hello all, Our next meeting will be tonight, (Wednesday) at 6:30 in VH1232. Peter and Bill are working on the Linux security talk and hope to have it ready in time for this meeting. Don will also be giving an introduction to gpg, so come and enjoy the paranoia. I know I will. I'll also be mentioning the details for the InstallFest, so don't miss the meeting!
Speaking of the InstallFest, it will be this Saturday from 12 noon until we get done - hopefully by 7ish. You don't have to be there the whole time, and if you partition/format your box (please!) beforehand, the install will probably be done before dinnertime. In preparing your box for the install, you should backup any important data and have an empty partition into which we can install Linux. Also, bring all of the hardware you normally run with, including monitor, mouse, keyboard, etc. It makes things easier. We're working on getting an InstallFest web page put together; until then, I'm mirroring an old page from another LUG at http://www2.truman.edu/~c2467/installfest_mirror.html in case you're getting antsy. Some of the details don't apply for TSLUG, but it's got a lot of good info. Watch http://tslug.truman.edu/ for a link to the TSLUG version of the InstallFest page coming soon (I feel like a commercial). Be thinking about T-shirt ideas, and whether we want them or not. Failing that, it might be cool/fun/dorkish to get some other small/cheap product customized for us like ... bumper stickers or mugs or ... vitamins (wouldn't you love to chomp on little Tuxes? Besides, geeks need dietary supplements) or something. Nate PS - I thought I sent this on Monday, but it never showed up in my inbox. Sorry it's so late. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe or change your membership options to this list, please use the interface at http://mtcs.truman.edu/cgi-bin/listargate.cgi. --------------------------------------------------------------------------
