[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:04:00] <johnc4510-laptop> Everyone should be aware of the following!!
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:04:14] <johnc4510-laptop> Reports have been coming in that the e1000e ethernet driver for Intel GigE chipsets, as included upstream in Linux 2.6.27, may under certain conditions irreparably damage your ethernet hardware by corrupting the on-board firmware.
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:04:18] <johnc4510-laptop> .
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:04:29] <johnc4510-laptop> This problem is in the alpha intrepid kernel and a patch is in the works, with a fix hopefully by final release in Oct. If you are going to use teh alpha please make sure your chipset isn't the one listed above.
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:04:40] <johnc4510-laptop> .

[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:05:18] <kennymc0> cool
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:05:30] <johnc4510-laptop> Ubuntu 7.04 reaches end-of-life on October 19, 2008. No more security updates after that date, so if you are still using 7.04 you need to upgrade to 7.10. Remember that if you want to upgrade to 8.04, you must first upgrade to 7.10, you can not skip to the most recent version.
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:05:45] <johnc4510-laptop> .

[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:06:14] <johnc4510-laptop> The Server Team wants to know: Where does Ubuntu Server fit into your IT environment? Members of the Server team devised a set of questions to better understand where and why you are using Ubuntu Server to support your IT infrastructure. Completing the survey, http://survey.ubuntu.com/, takes around 20 minutes and topics such as hardware, virtualization and system integration are covered.

[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:10:37] <BaD_CrC>  so what's on the agenda tonight? i'm interested.
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:11:03] <johnc4510-laptop> we just did the annoucements and are going to talk about release/installfest parties for intrepid
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:11:19] <johnc4510-laptop> OK, the release date for Intrepid has been set as Oct. 30th, 2008. That's a Thursday.
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:11:22] Part       snits has left this channel.
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:11:36] <johnc4510-laptop> From what I've found out about bulk shipments for approved teams, there should be a early order date for delivery 2 wks after the release. That would make it the 15th as a target date for the installfest. As for a release party, we could still have one closer to the release date, but...
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:12:07] <johnc4510-laptop> i need imput on whether we want to do both
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:12:09] <johnc4510-laptop> ??

[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:13:12] <eddieftw> hola
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:13:12] <BaD_CrC>  is easynews.com a ubuntu mirror?
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:13:52] <johnc4510-laptop> my thinking is that we do a installfest for the 15th'ish and if we want to do an impromptu release party we can fit that in
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:13:56] <word>     i don't think that's even a big soruceforge mirror anymore :-/
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:13:57] <tyche>    Not that I know of.
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:14:01] <johnc4510-laptop> but the installfest is important
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:14:13] <johnc4510-laptop> tyche: you agree with that?
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:14:18] <tyche>    Yep.

[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:14:39] <tyche>    snarkster: I'll protect you.
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:14:41] <johnc4510-laptop> We need to discuss locations

[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:15:26] <tyche>    Do we have a firm commitment from ASU?
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:15:34] <johnc4510-laptop> well, we can only do one location so i'd like this one to be ASU i think
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:15:35] <snarkster>        thats putting us on AUS lug turf, they ok with that?
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:15:47] <johnc4510-laptop> tyche: i'm pretty sure we do
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:16:03] <snarkster>        err ASU
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:16:04] <johnc4510-laptop> i talked with zane at the conference and he's all for it anytime
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:16:11] <johnc4510-laptop> we just have to let him know
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:16:12] <snarkster>        cool
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:16:19] <tyche>    johnc4510-laptop: Since you spoke with him, I'll leave it to you to contact and make sure.

[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:17:06] <johnc4510-laptop> so, my hopes of having the parties at the main college campuses is looking good
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:17:17] <snarkster>        nice
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:17:32] <johnc4510-laptop> that will help concentrate the draw to a specific location
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:18:00] <johnc4510-laptop> and maybe get the techie students involved
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:18:21] <kennymc0> word would have to drive such a long way to get there too
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:18:23] <kennymc0> ROFL

[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:18:52] <paul928_laptop>   I'd really like some help. I seem to be the only active member from Yuma.
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:19:12] <paul928_laptop>   We need more members here in Yuma
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:19:16] <johnc4510-laptop> yeah paul928_laptop. any ideas on what we could do?
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:19:19] <snarkster>        come back to phoenix Paul928
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:19:21] <tyche>    paul928_laptop: You're supposed to recruit more.
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:19:37] <johnc4510-laptop> paul928_laptop: you have a community college there?
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:19:47] <paul928_laptop>   I know that some yuma people have visited this irc channel
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:19:48] <kennymc0> if i knew anyone besides you there i would try to help but i dont know anyone down there
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:20:27] <johnc4510-laptop> ok, lets talk about yuma after we finish with the installfest stuff
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:20:30] <johnc4510-laptop> kk?
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:20:42] <paul928_laptop>   kk
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:20:47] <johnc4510-laptop> I want to hit publicity for the installfest harder this time.
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:20:53] <johnc4510-laptop> and earlier
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:21:24] <johnc4510-laptop> we can concentrate on the campus angle, but we shouldn't overlook others that might be interested
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:21:27] <kennymc0> sooner we have a set date, place and time we can start advertising
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:21:32] <johnc4510-laptop> right
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:21:46] <johnc4510-laptop> Also flyers, we can probably adapt one of our previous flyers to fit.
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:21:55] <snarkster>        YES we really need to advertise
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:22:02] <johnc4510-laptop> .
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:22:07] <johnc4510-laptop> Again, we want to include as many of the state user groups as possible to make it a coordinated event.
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:22:16] <snarkster>        I can place posters, flyers at my campus
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:22:22] <johnc4510-laptop> cool
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:22:25] <tyche>    I'll take a look at the fliers I've got on file, and see if I can adapt one.
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:22:26] <johnc4510-laptop> that would be great
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:22:30] <johnc4510-laptop> tyche: thx
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:22:31] <johnc4510-laptop> :)
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:22:34] <snarkster>        oh and red mountain campus
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:22:43] <tyche>    They'll be posted on our forum.
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:22:50] <snarkster>        ok
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:22:55]     * BaD_CrC can only imagine the possibilities if Myspace played along with Ubuntu releases
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:22:59] <johnc4510-laptop> i'll get with the two contacts at the two campuses this wk and try to firm up a date that's good for all
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:23:09] <johnc4510-laptop> BaD_CrC: :)
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:23:36] <johnc4510-laptop> ok, something else we've missed out on i think are: Demos, gaming, etc ??
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:23:48] <BaD_CrC>  i think i still have a couple of contacts at Westwood HS in Mesa that might be able to help. i'll check and keep ya posted.
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:23:49] <johnc4510-laptop> it's something we could advertise in the flyers
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:23:57] <johnc4510-laptop> BaD_CrC: thx
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:24:06] <johnc4510-laptop> send them here please
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:24:07] <johnc4510-laptop> :)
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:24:12] <BaD_CrC>  will do
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:24:51] <johnc4510-laptop> i'm thinking on a college campus if we ran a game server at the installfest it would draw more students
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:24:54] <johnc4510-laptop> .
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:25:02] <johnc4510-laptop> does that make sense ??
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:25:13] <johnc4510-laptop> open source of course
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:25:16] <tyche>    Yea, but it's not something I know how to do.
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:25:21] <snarkster>        yah it does, but we need windows/mac clients
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:25:29] <paul928_laptop>   openarena?

[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:27:56] <word>     johnc4510-laptop: if you talk to the right people you could probably get a mass mailer advertising the event to all of the engineering students, or at least all of the SCI students (school of computing and informatics)
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:28:12] <paul928_laptop>   NAU and a community college

[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:28:42] <BaD_CrC>  hmmm, my upgrade from stable hardy to alpha 6 intrepid is a bit flaky. that's ok, i always do a fresh install when new releases come out anyways.
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:28:47] <azteech>  BaD_CrC not that I am aware of ... only had something like 24 hits ...
[Sun Sep 28 2008] [21:29:11] <johnc4510-laptop> paul928_laptop: ok we need to find a contact on campus in the computer dept that will help us inform the student body i think
