I know that the LUG is full of bleeding edgers. Has anyone converted over to all electronic banking/finaces? do you receive all your statements through email? What are the pros? cons? thanks

Re: OT: using a WRT54G as a wireless bridge?

http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Supported_Devices DD-WRT will work on v5+ WRT54Gs, just not as well. The v5 versions began the switch away from using Linux by default to using VxWorks on half the ram or half the flash or both, can't remember which at the moment, but it can still be flashed with a minimal build of Linux. However, there are cheap devices on the market today that have considerably better specs that'll work just fine. For instance, Best Buy, CompUSA (assuming they haven't been completely looted yet), and MicroCenter all had the Buffalo WHR-G54S in stock back in Feb. -Sean

Does anyone have any experiance with this? I found an older Anandtech article about loading sveasoft (or a varient thereof) onto the linksys router. I thought that i had heard that that was no longer possible with the newer linksys stuff? Anyone know?

Has anyone else seen this "Mugshot" project that seems to be from Redhat? It's some sort of open source social networking thing. Linkage at http://mugshot.org/. There's a Linux client so it can't be all bad! -- Kyle Sexton

Future meetings will continue to be held on the last Sunday of every month (the 27th for this month) at 2pm. If you have ideas or topics you'd like to discuss please let me know and we can work something out. They serve coffee and alcohol, so it should be a good meeting. :) Full address: Daily Dose Bar & Coffee House (Northwest corner of 135th and Quivera, facing Quivera) 12056 W 135th St Overland Park, KS 66221 -- Kyle Sexton

Embrace the Penguin
by Jim Herrmann 22 May '07

22 May '07

I have come up with the chorus to a song that I think you will all love. It's called "Embrace the Penguin", which will essentially be encouragement for people move over to the world of open source freedom. What I would like to do with the verses, if you like the idea, is turn them into sort of open source verses, and come up with them collaboratively. It's difficult to create art in a multi-opinion collaborative process, but I think it can be done. I will retain the "project lead" position for myself, so the final "commits", if you will, would be my responsibility, but I would like any and all input. I think we would just have to work together on the poetry, and I'll work out the music. Anyway, here's the chorus: Embrace the Penguin Walk away from Redmond Embrace the Penguin Step into freedom If you believe in living free of corporate monopolies then won't you please join with me and Embrace the Penguin So what should be in the verses? Let's have some fun. Peace, Jim

Duel Heads issue resolved
by Earle Beason 18 May '07

18 May '07

Reload Fedora 6 to recover from the learning curve here at Hard knocks University, I guess I passed the finals, I got my system back up. I learned that my board has radeon device, and I have a plug in All-in-wonder from ATI. There is a mismatch in drivers, when I figured that the two had some sort of conflict I was able to commit out the radeon driver, The fuzzy mouse problem I figured out was cause by the westinghouse LCD moniter. The westinghouse monitor dose not have drivers and the customer support is worth squat. I reconfigured my CRT to be primary, and the LCD to be secondary. I pluged in some generic modes of theLCD and forced it align itself with the CRT. I would say stay away from the westinghouse LCD # Xorg configuration created by system-config-display Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Multihead layout" Screen 0 "Screen0" LeftOf "Screen1" Screen 1 "Screen1" 0 0 InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" Option "Xinerama" "off" Option "Clone" "on" EndSection Section "Files" ModulePath "/usr/lib/xorg/modules" EndSection Section "ServerFlags" Option "AIGLX" "on" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Keyboard0" Driver "kbd" Option "XkbModel" "pc105" Option "XkbLayout" "us" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Configured Mouse" Driver "mouse" Option "CorePointer" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true" EndSection Section "Monitor" ### Comment all HorizSync and VertSync values to use DDC: Identifier "Monitor0" VendorName "Viewsonic" ModelName "ViewSonic A70" ### Comment all HorizSync and VertSync values to use DDC: HorizSync 30.0 - 70.0 VertRefresh 50.0 - 80.0 Option "dpms" EndSection Section "Monitor" ### Comment all HorizSync and VertSync values to use DDC: Identifier "Monitor1" VendorName "Monitor Vendor" ModelName "LCM-20v5" ### Comment all HorizSync and VertSync values to use DDC: HorizSync 31.5 - 70.0 VertRefresh 50.0 - 70.0 Option "dpms" EndSection Section "Device" # Driver "radeon" Identifier "Videocard0" Driver "fglrx" VendorName "Videocard Vendor" BoardName "ATI Technologies Inc RV350 AP [Radeon 9600]" Option "VideoOverlay" "on" Option "UseInternalAGPGART" "no" Option "UseDisplayDevice" "CRT" BusID "PCI:1:0:0" EndSection Section "Device" # Driver "radeon" Identifier "Videocard1" Driver "fglrx" VendorName "Videocard Vendor" BoardName "ATI Technologies Inc RV350 AP [Radeon 9600]" Option "VideoOverlay" "on" Option "UseInternalAGPGART" "no" Option "UseDisplayDevice" "DFP" BusID "PCI:1:0:0" Screen 1 EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Videocard0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 Modes "1400x1050" "1280x1024" "1280x960" "1280x800" "1152x864" "1152x768" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen1" Device "Videocard1" Monitor "Monitor1" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 Modes "800x600" "1152x864" "1152x864" "1280x960" "1400x1050" EndSubSection EndSection
