by Jonathan Hutchins 07 May '07

07 May '07

Big survey of SuSE users: http://files.opensuse.org/opensuse/en/6/6c/Opensuse_survey_102_data_final.p… Pretty much what I would expect, the majority are lusers who still run Windows.

Speakers wanted
by Justin Dugger 03 May '07

03 May '07

Hi, I'm looking for speakers for the Kansas State University Local Users Group (http://k-slug.org/). We're a student and staff oriented group with a fairly knowledgeable Linux user base, but we're looking to expand membership and our hope is for many more novice users come fall. We'd like expand our speakers roster in the coming year, so we're looking for speakers related to Linux and open source technologies. Preferably speakers are the people who made the tools they're presenting, but previous talks have been done by advanced users with great success. If your company is looking to hire new students, giving a talk is probably a good way to pick up interested and talented individuals (and get out of the office for a bit! ^_^). KSU is located in Manhattan and is about two hour's drive from KC. If you have any questions, email me or try #k-slug on Freenode. Justin Dugger

Backups in a mixed environment
by cragos＠gmail.com 23 Apr '07

23 Apr '07

My wife just lost a big chunk of a document she was working on on her Windows machine. She wouldn't have lost it, however, if I'd rigged her box to do a nightly backup to a CVS server or something of the sort on my Ubuntu box. I'm going to setup something like that now, but I'd like your suggestions on just precisely what to use on each end. Server side requirements: 1: Minimal upkeep 2: Backed up files accessible without much hassle on the server side Client side requirements: 1: Easy enough to use if my wife wants to make an unscheduled backup or change the directories/files being tracked 2: Easily scheduled Ideally: 1: The client side software should also exist or have functional counterparts available for Linux and Mac OSX 2: The client side automation should run through Scheduled Tasks/run like a cron job, so that she doesn't have to have yet another permanently memory-resident application in her toolbar. 3: The server shouldn't require more than one or two open ports 4: The network traffic should be encrypted, so that if I chose to do remote backups, I wouldn't have to mess with tunneling. Any suggestions? PS: already pointed out Leapord's Time Machine, and got shot down. No new Macs for us poor folk. Might give http://www.mogware.com/FileHamster/ProductTour/ a shot, though, if I can't find a reasonable OSS networked solution. Thanks, Sean

so- THIS is what the public will associate with Linux? More SCO FUD
by Oren Beck 23 Apr '07

23 Apr '07

I am convinced that SCO and their associates are picked for sheer churlishness above any other quality. http://wifinetnews.com/archives/007571.html Do note that some of the "logic" used is rather incoherent at best. Ah well, at least they are not _yet_ overtly dragging Linux into it. Nonetheless, the perceived linkage is almost as bad in social affect.

Is Computer User still being published?
by Preu, Jason P. 16 Apr '07

16 Apr '07

I've not seen it in a while either. Their website used to be: http://www.kccomputeruser.com And that doesn't appear to be up. The Wayback Machine's archives for the site stop on 4/06.
