Hi

I was oping to introduce myself and our company to the Hampshire Linux User group.  I became aware of this group through Amanda Golding when I did some work with her at Jamie's Computer club

Amanda is now working with us - us being Switch Concepts - www.switchconcepts.co.uk.  I am the Managing Director of Switch and we've been running now 3 years.

So, we are a completely linux based software company that specialises in building bespoke adserving software.

We would be interested to engage with hantslug on lots of levels.  For example...

 - take part in the general discussions and contribute where we can to the community. 
 - contribute anything we can to help - for example we have office space that could be used for meetings and could host a free forum for the group if interested (www.myfreeforum.org is one of our tech's other businesses)
 - seek consultancy from any of the members who might be able to bring expertise to our company that need - for example, right now we could use people who expert in building racks of servers.  We also are on the look out for database/sql storage and query experts...

And generally, as I say, we are a linux based organisation with a strong sense of value in the open source movement and all agreed that we'd like to support your group.

I hope this is of interest and look forward to speaking/meeting you guys!

Tom

I wonder if anyone could explain this to me?

In my sudoers file I have:-

%users ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/pm-suspend

but if I run "pm-suspend" I am told this can be only run by root, and if 
I run sudo pm-suspend I am asked for my password.  I assume that there 
must be something wrong with the line above from /etc/sudoers, but my 
research hasn't thrown up an answer.

Grateful as ever for any help

Owain

%users ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/pm-suspend
Try:
	%users ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL

Ensure that you are in the 'users' group (run "groups").

Then run
	sudo pm-suspend
