Hello Sluggers
The next meeting of Macarthur Linux Users Group (MacLUG) will be on
Saturday 21st October from 10am to whenever.
It is in Campbelltown - RSVP for the address.
MacLUG meetings are a day event, relaxed, hands on, come and go when
you want to, etc. The idea is to bring your box and goodies for help
and fiddles, etc.
Each meeting has a theme/topic and since the Slug X Fest didn't come
off, we'll make "Hands-On-X the theme for this month's meeting. So if
you want practical hands-on, Terry, who has survived setting figures for
two montiors, and will talk about X-Video timings and show you how to
convert the figures in your monitor's handbook into XF86Config figures
(Bring a calculator you can use - sliderules provided). "Strictly at
your risk". There are also some old monitors (NEC) around that you can
run through the process on. There is definitely NOT a prize for whomever
makes the most smoke on the day.
There isn't a program, there are no planned talks, there is a list of
things we might do, can do, etc. If you want to come and chat - fine, if
you want to install/tune up your box - fine, if you want to hardware
hack - fine, etc.
There will be power, internet link, webcam coverage, phone lines,
workshop, various linux distros (redhat, caldera, suse, debian, TL and
others), etc.
If the weather is nice, it will be outside under a tarp. If weather is
poor, we'll crowd the workshop. Please bring table and chair if you
have it and if is easy to do (we had enough table top space last time).
RSVP to me ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
Cost $3 members, $5 non-members, covers costs.
(Mac LUG is a sub group of SLUG, so membership of MacLUG is by being a
member of SLUG).
RSVP to me if you want some snags-onion-slaw for lunch or vego option
(included in $), or BYO (bbq provided).
Endless tea and coffee throughout the day.
If you stay for dinner, there is an new chinese just up the road. The
local shopping centre is 2 blocks away with a takeaway, cakes shop,
small supermarket and the chinese.
If you want to come by public transport, i.e train, I will collect
from and return you to Lumeah station (the one before Campbelltown). Let
me know you are coming this way and ring from the station/newsagent on
arrival.
Future meetings will be on the third Saturday of each month. (Saturday
18th November 2000)
