[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:03:54] <johnc4510-laptop> The tutorial of this week is "HOWTO: RT2500, etc. wireless cards [Gutsy Gibbon]," by wieman01. While the thread is specific to a particular range of hardware, it stands out as a tutorial that's well written, concise, clearly documented and constantly maintained. If you have a Ralink-based wireless adapter, you'll want to look it over; if you don't, it's still worth reading as an excellent example of a how-to. http://tinyurl.com/2g
[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:03:56] <tyche>    No, but I'm darned good.  Hee hee

[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:07:21] <jsonder>  We've had such a drop off in club visits in general that I'm sure we can hadle the limited interest
[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:07:48] <johnc4510-laptop> jsonder: kk, just let us know if needed    glad to help
[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:07:55] <johnc4510-laptop> Last week we discussed having a barcamp and a couple of install fests
[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:08:17] <johnc4510-laptop> barcamp being an open source conference
[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:08:27] <johnc4510-laptop> and
[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:08:43] <johnc4510-laptop> incorporating a state wide meet up at the same time
[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:09:12] <johnc4510-laptop> the idea is to promote open source in AZ and support for the LUG in the state
[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:09:32] <johnc4510-laptop> and maybe get some of the inactive members to show up for the conference
[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:09:46] <kennymc0> sounds like a good idea to me
[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:09:47] <johnc4510-laptop> so several birds in one toss
[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:09:49] <rsthree>  we know who we are :(

[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:11:02] <johnc4510-laptop> we decided on 2 during the yr
[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:11:24] <johnc4510-laptop> about 6 wks after the release of the two yearly ubuntu versions
[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:11:40] <johnc4510-laptop> next on is 8.04
[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:11:42] <rsthree>  cool
[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:11:52] <johnc4510-laptop> so april of 2008 is next release

[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:31:04] <jsonder>  You'll need to check compatiblility of connectors and drivers.  I had to drop back to an older laptop to be in harmony with the projector.
[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:31:19] <johnc4510-laptop> jsonder: good thinking
[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:31:36] <soldats>  johnc4510-laptop, sorry i noticed the projector part but i was in the middle of helping someone on xubuntu. i have to re-read all this

[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:32:00] <kennymc0> if we have it before i graduate i could ask school and see if i can get a room for this
[Sun Jan 20 2008] [21:32:07] <johnc4510-laptop> we would need it to hook up to a laptop for a slide show sort of thing
