# Windows subsystem for linux with Evan Leibovitch

After one too many times fighting with PulseAudio and video drivers and having
printers and scanners that will NEVER work with Linux, I gave up my dual boot
laptop and desktop and have loaded Win 10 on both.

Turns out, things run faster too, even open source apps like Handbrake which
take advantage of the GPU to do its video decoding while Linux can't do that.

But the story is not done. I installed Windows Subsystem for Linux and now have
a fully running Kubuntu as a VM when I want it. And there are some interesting
tools such as Windows Terminal in which you can have a Linux terminal shell
next to a tab with Windows PowerShell.

This presentation will describe one organization's search for the best way to 
do this. In the process it will identify some of the tools available - both 
open source and cloud based - and offer advice and warnings to others looking 
to use this method of communications.

# Code of Conduct

We want a productive happy community that can welcome new ideas, improve every 
process every year, and foster collaboration between individuals with differing 
needs, interests and skills.

We gain strength from diversity, and actively seek participation from those who 
enhance it. This code of conduct exists to ensure that diverse groups 
collaborate to mutual advantage and enjoyment. We will challenge prejudice that 
could jeopardise the participation of any person in the community.

The Code of Conduct governs how we behave in public or in private whenever the 
Linux community will be judged by our actions. We expect it to be honoured by 
everyone who represents the community officially or informally, claims 
affiliation or participates directly. It applies to activities online or 
offline.

We invite anybody to participate. Our community is open.

[GTALUG-Announce] Meeting Tomorrow at 7:30pm with Christopher Browne and Scott Sullivan

[Myles Braithwaite]

# Terminal Multiplexers and PXE Boot

## Screen, Tmux, Byobu, the Secret Terminal Brains!!!
### Christopher Browne

GNU Screen has been lurking around since the 1980s, as a kind of
"tiling window manager atop curses".

BSD folk spawned an analogue called tmux in 2009, offering both
additions and removals of functionality.

Byobu offers a harmonization, and (arguably) better user experience.

We'll look at some usages, use cases, and see how frequently Byobu
Hollywood crashes.

## Good Bye Boot Media! (or, don't copy that boot floopy)
### Scott Sullivan

A tour of how network boot/install can save you ever having to burn a
DVDs or USB drive.
