Re: [BLUG] OLPC

The one from Red Hat hasn't been updates in over 6 months.

A much more up-to-date one is available. There is an Xubuntu based one
that works on all the hardware we've tested it on
<http://startx.ro/sugar/> (which is neat because if you log out of the
X session they log you into by default, you change the session and log
directly into Sugar, otherwise you can run the emulator from the
Applications menu from within XFCE).

And there's a more recent one, based directly on the Red Hat builds it
seems, which we HAVEN'T gotten to work on the hardware we've tested it
on. It might work for you, though:
<ftp://rohrmoser-engineering.de/pub/XO-LiveCD/>

Hope you have an awesome day!

[BLUG] OLPC

As for the One Laptop Per Child project, I hopefully will have scraped together enough for one (2 of course) by 12/31 (the deadline for the buy one get one deal) and should have recieved it in time for the february meeting. Also it runs is a lightweight, redhat engineered, linux based OS called Sugar; which is available as an ISO here:

That's all the news from Lake Wobegon,

Yeah, sounds like a plan to me. Seems like lots of folks are pretty
busy this month (I know I am).

[BLUG] December meeting

I don't know about anyone else, but the month of December is flying by
already and I am very busy. Unless anyone has a problem with it, I am
proposing that we cancel the December meeting and get together next month.

Any opinions?

Thank you,
Scott Blaydes

RE: [BLUG] Fwd: December IUMMUG Meeting: Unix for web developers

Thanks Joe.

That was my bad, it was Matt Davy that spoke Friday. I put both events on my calendar around the same time and must not have paid too much attention.

I think it will be recorded, I'll pass this info on to the list.

You must have somebody in mind as far as the IPv6 talk goes, that
wasn't me :)
