Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu Hour... well maybe.

2020-09-18 Thread Phil N
I agree with Cody, it's risky and smoky out there. However I just thought
I'd mention that I'll be at BWC this evening for some much needed R&R and a
spot of tea.
Therefore it's not an official Ubuntu meeting of sorts, I'm just there...
hanging out catching up on the general goings on in our area.
No biggie if no one shows up, as masks are required while inside BWC and
social disting is as well.
Ciao for now,
Phil. N.

[Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu Hour... well maybe.

2020-09-17 Thread Phil N
We have not held an Ubuntu Hour since the COVID virus in March. Now that
things are starting to open up once again and with Broadway Coffee now open
until 7:00 pm.
I thought I'd mention to our LoCo Linux techies that I'll be down at
Broadway Coffee this Friday late afternoon time until closing at 7:00 pm
that evening.
So if anyone would like to join me for an *unofficial* Linux/Ubuntu meeting
while enjoying some much missed tech-talk along with a cup of tea or
coffee, you know where I'll unofficially be this coming Friday evening.
Just passing this along.
Ciao for now, Techie Trekkie,

I'll attend this evenings meeting, just in case a curious someone shows up.
If nothing else, I'll step outside at 6:27 to see if I can spot Starlink-1
(first volley of satellites launched by SpaceX). At 6:27 PM, look from
SOUTHWEST to NORTHEAST, elevation (Deg above horizon): start: 10°, max elv:
61°, end: 12° Note: Arrival time may be off by a few minutes.

[Ubuntu Oregon] Salem Ubuntu Hour

2019-12-20 Thread Phil N
Hi all, just a friendly reminder.
There is NO Salem Ubuntu Hour this evening. Do to lower participation
during the holidays along with the holiday hustle, we have decided that it
would be best not to have our regular Friday meeting this month.
Considering the storm that's coming our way, I think we decided wisely.

Thank you all for your contributions over the years, towards building an
awesome Ubuntu community along with creating "Ubuntu," the best Linux
distribution ever made.

Hope you all have a merry Christmas, and a happy new year.
Best wishes,

Phillip. N.
Self-appointed - Technology Evangelist.

[Ubuntu Oregon] Meeting tonight.

2019-11-15 Thread Phil N
I made it down to Broadway for this evening's Ubuntu meeting in Salem,
brought cookies the edible kind..
Currently no one else has arrived, however it's a nibble early. So I'll
hang out here at Broadway Coffee for a bit in case someone shows up, stop
on by to talk about our favorite OS, and nibble on some snacks.

Ciao Phil. N.

I've made it down to Broadway coffee, no one is here so I'll stay in case
someone important arrives.
Speaking of important, James just arrives down here to beat the heat with a
cool drink of coffee.  With any luck more will show up..

I'll be there with some of the computer equipment I got at the Garten GEARS
store, which I'll be installing Linux / Ubuntu on during our meeting. If
anyone is interested the Garten GEARS store is having a holiday sale today
where everything will be 40% the sticker price. So if you looking for a
good computer to install Ubuntu on now is the time. The Sale is from
11:00am to 3:00pm, however the good deals will be gone before 3:00pm,
therefore you may arrive as early as 10am, door opens at 11:00. Located at: 334
Industrial Way NE, Salem. Please let them know your part of our Linux
community.
Happy thanksgiving everyone, and many thanks for being part of our Linux
community.

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Salem Ubuntu Hour

2018-09-20 Thread Phil N
I'll bring my new Linux book, which is a newer edition to the one James
recommended to me awhile back.
During our last meeting I left the Linux book inside my car, due to the
parking problem we had with 3 graduations taking place at Broadway.  FYI:
Should there be another issue w/ parking, the Bike Hub closes at 6:000pm,
so I don't think there should be a problem using their parking, which is
where I parked.

If anyone is interested here is a link to the book.

[Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu hour today.

2018-07-20 Thread Phil N
Just letting fellow Linux enthusiasts know, Salem Ubuntu Hour is taking
place today (Friday), July 20th.  The festivities start at 6:00PM and last
until 7:00ish, and will take place at Broadway Coffeehouse, located at 1300
Broadway St NE, in Salem. This event is for anyone interested in GNU/Linux
distributions, including our favorite Ubuntu distro.

Come on down to Broadway to beat the heat, and enjoy a nice ice cold
beverage while watching the heat from inside their A/C cooled building, and
talk about Linux and Ubuntu.
Ciao for now.
Phil. N

Not going to be able to make it to the Ubuntu meeting this evening. I'm
still trying to recover from this winters biological virus, which caused me
to miss work most of this week, so it's my second day back at work. Not
wanting to deplete my energy level any further, I think I'll need to skip
this one.
Have a great meting everyone.

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu Hour tomorrow

2018-01-19 Thread Phil N
Thanks Cody, looking forward to seeing our Loco group this evening a
Broadway. Thought I'd let you Linux enthusiast know the good news first.

Microportal, the Electronics club in collaboration with Spark Studio Salem,
will be hosting a Raspberry Pi Installfest here in Salem, to further help
those interested in making with Raspberry Pi get started. Just like a Linux
Installfest, the Raspberry Pi Installfest will be a hands-on event where
experienced Pi users (we’ll call "Pi Chefs”) assist new Pi users with
installing NOOBS (New Out Of Box Software), along with various other
Raspberry Pi distros, like Ubuntu Mata or Snappy Core, including FOSS
Applications.

The Raspberry Pi Installfest is being planned for sometime during the last
week of March, after winter term finals. We are letting people know
beforehand to allow them plenty of time to order their Raspberry Pi. Some
time next month we'll make an announcement in the Statesman Journal w/
exact location and date.

If anyone from our Loco Linux / Ubuntu community would like to help during
Installfest, or is willing to help organizing. Please let me know, we'd
really like to partner with our loco Linux / Ubuntu community. Because of
FOSS and the dedication of our Linux community, we can enjoy Pi.

Best regards,
Phil. N co-founder, Microportal, the Electronic club.

[Ubuntu Oregon] Salem Ubuntu hour

2018-01-05 Thread Phil N
Hi all, the Salem Ubuntu hour is taking place today from 6 pm to 7pm at
Broadway coffeehouse, 1300 Broadway St NE #100, Salem.
Join us for this years first Linux/ Ubuntu hour to demonstrate, learn, or
just show us your new Linux-based gadget(s) you may have gotten for
Christmas.

I'd be interested to know how to update Linux kernel on Samsung galaxy amp
prime, or should I dare attempt it. The Apps update automatically, however
the kernel is stuck at 7.1.1.  Also of topic interest is the latest news on
Meltdown and Spectre, so join us for some speculative commentary.

TTYL

[Ubuntu Oregon] Salem Ubuntu meeting.

2017-12-15 Thread Phil N
Just letting you know I won't be able to make Ubuntu Hour this evening
taking place in Salem. As once again I'm sabotaged by the holiday
festivities. I was really hoping to make our last meeting of the year,
however my family has made other plans.  Have a great meeting, see you all
next year.

With any luck this next year we "may" actually have a release party for
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Bionic Beaver.  It would be fantastic to have a release
party themed around the "Beaver."  As most know - Oregon is also home to
the Beavers, which comprise several athletic teams representing Oregon
State University.  However that's not the only thing Ubuntu Bionic Beaver
has in common with Oregon State Beavers. Both logos are also colored
Orange. ;-)  And as you all know, the cool commonalities between Linux and
Oregon don't stop there.

Wishing everyone a very merry Christmas, and a happy happy happy New Year.

Thank you everyone for another fantastic year of running Linux and Ubuntu,
and thank you all for being part of out tech community.

Best Wishes
Phil. N

Thank you Cody for posting and creating an event link.  I happen to have
caught Dave's NW-tech radio show during noontime on KMUZ.org, he gave this
event high praises, saying Ubuntu is a great replacement for Windows, an OS
made by the community that lets a user take command of their own system,
making their own operating system.  Thanks Dave for the shout-out and
great! praise.

While I was downtown Salem, I handed one of our flyers to a guy named
Steve, who runs Linux Mint DE.
So not sure if Steve will make it this Friday or not.

Can't wait for Friday to get here, hope to see you at The Place to Be..
Downtown.

[Ubuntu Oregon] Salem Ubuntu Hour.

2017-08-18 Thread Phil N
Our regularly scheduled Salem Ubuntu Hour will be taking place today
Friday, August 18th.
Regardless of the Solar Eclipse casting a shadow over Salem in 3 days,
don't let the shadow keep you from attending this evening's
festivities. Ubuntu Hour starts at 6:00PM this evening and last until
7:00ish, and takes place at Broadway Coffeehouse, located at 1300 Broadway
St NE, in Salem. This event is for anyone interested in GNU/Linux
distributions, and FOSS software, including Stellarium, which runs great on
Ubuntu.

I'll attend this evening, if anything else, just to see how many eclipies
have arrived.. This could be a prelude to an invasion from the Moon... they
came from Luna.

Ciao for now
Phil. N

Come on down to Broadway to beat the heat, and enjoy a nice ice cold

lets talk about Linux and Ubuntu.  One topic could be SeaGL.org, or what's

[Ubuntu Oregon] Salem Ubuntu Hour.

2017-07-07 Thread Phil N
Just letting fellow Linux enthusiasts know, Salem Ubuntu Hour is taking
place today (Friday), July 7th.
The festivities are from 6:00PM to 7:00PM, and take place at Broadway
Coffeehouse, located at 1300 Broadway St NE, in Salem.
This event is for anyone interested in GNU/Linux distributions, including
our favorite Ubuntu distro.

Typing of Ubuntu, there is now Skywave Linux, which is based on Ubuntu
16.04 LTS. Sykwave is a ready-made solution for Software Defined Radio
(SDR), that come fully loaded with several SDR applications already
installed, and ready to receive radio signals. This is a great OS for those
interested in Ham radio, Hardware, Hacking, and Coding.

Sykwave's official web-site is at: http://skywavelinux.com

Thank you Amateur Radio community, and Linux / FOSS contributors for making
this a great OS geared towards SDR.

I'll try to make this evening's Ubuntu hour, however at this time, can't
make any promises.

Ciao for now
Phil. N.

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Firday's Salem Ubuntu Hour, and Planetarium events.

2017-05-31 Thread Phil N
Hi All,
Broadway Coffeehouse was able to reserve the Dallas Room, 204, for our
meeting on Friday, June 2, from 6pm-7pm.  The Dallas room (204) is located
on the second floor, towards the back.  Some of you may remember meeting
there before. The room holds about 10, so we should have plenty of seats
available for those wishing to attend.  There is no fee to use this room,
your patronage helps the Coffeehouse makes it possible for us to continue
to use this public space for free.  So please thank Broadway Coffeehouse by
purchasing a beverage, and letting them know your there for the Linux /
Ubuntu meeting.

After our meeting at Broadway, I'm heading over to Chemeketa's Planetarium
to see their eclipse presentation.  Anyones is welcome to follow me over to
Chemeketa.  For more information on the eclipse presentation, please see
our LoCo techie calender of events, for Friday, hosted by Makerspace Salem
at: https://makerspacesalem.org/calendar.html

Che > I totally understand other priorities taking present for Friday, and
hope to catch you both at another Ubuntu hour.  On a "Bald" Hill sounds
like the perfect place to watch the eclipse "unobstructed". LOL.

On a personal note:
Over the weekend I attended the Dorkbot meetup, hosted at CTRL-H PDX
Hackerspace, located in Portland, and had lots of great tech fun.  Hope
everyone also had a great weekend.

Also currently writing in Python to read USB codes from a joystick, to
reverse engineer it for other useful purposes with Linux / Ubuntu.  The
stick is a Logitech RF2.4 Freedom 2.4 cordless joystick, so if anyone out
there already knows the scan-codes, please let me know.  Also found
"jstest-gtk" runs great on Ubuntu 16.04.

Looking forward to Friday's meeting.
Ciao for now
Phil. N

Hi Che,
Wow, a broadcast of the Eclipse definitely sounds exciting. Chemeketa will
be showing their eclipse presentation for the next two Fridays, the last
show date is on the 9th of June, so you still have some time.  The
presentation is hosted by the astronomy instructor, so always a great show,
full of scientific information for the techie brain.

As Cody said; Garten should be open next Friday, the store hours are from
11:00am – 3:00pm. I was there this past Friday, they did not have many
laptops, however they did have several desktop computers (i5 and i7)
ranging from $80 to $180 based on configuration, and of course lots of
various cables from $1 to $3 each.

I'll keep everyone posted regarding the conference room request at
Broadway, they have lots of tutelage going on this week with finals, so
well have to wait and see.

Have a great memorial day weekend everyone, and thank you veterans for the
freedoms and civil liberties we have, like the freedom to use FOSS daily.

Ciao for now,
Phil. N.

Your welcome to join us for some Linux conversations, while enjoying your

[Ubuntu Oregon] Salem Ubuntu Hour

2017-04-07 Thread Phil N
Just letting fellow Linux enthusiasts know, Salem Ubuntu Hour is taking
place this coming Friday, Apr 7th.  So set your wind-powered sail for the
warm fireplace at Broadway Coffeehouse, located at 1300 Broadway St NE, in
Salem.  The festivities are from 6:00PM to 7:00PM.  For anyone interested
in GNU/Linux distributions, including our favorite Ubuntu distro, grab a
warm drink and come join us for some tech talk.

I've been experimenting with how easy it is to do C++ programming on
Ubuntu, with nothing to install, I was able to create a program within 15
minutes from inside Terminal.  Thanks GNU/Linux community.

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu Hour tomorrow

2017-03-17 Thread Phil N
Not going to be able to make this Friday's meeting. Have fun everyone, and
happy St Patrick's day.
I'm almost done for the week, so it's almost time to have a Heineken...
(because it's in a "green" bottle).

Cody - Nicely done post,

thanks all.
Phil.

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] New AMD Ryzen CPUs

2017-03-05 Thread Phil N
Thank you Che for those kind words. It was also a pleasure conversing with
you and Linda as well, and I too look forward to next month.  I forgot to
ask - Even-though you are both exceptionally well versed in matters of
science, should Linda require a science advisor for her books as another
view point, I'd be happy to provide research.  Plus I'm waiting for
Hollywood to call me should they require someone who looks like an
alchemist... LOL.

Thanks for contributing to Boinc all those years, and your Ubuntu Touch
demo.

Looking forward to meeting up with you and the rest of our LoCo members
next month.

Ciao,
 Phil. N

Hi Che,
Not sure the dual monitor stands are still there, they were 3 remaining
when I was last there two Fridays ago.
Last price I seen was $15/ea.
Looking forward to seeing ya, let me know what time you'll be at Garten,
and if time permits, we can meet up there like last time.  I was planing on
being at Garten around 2:00 to pick up some PSU and HDMI cables, before
they closed at 3:00pm


Ciao for now

Yep it would be great to see Ben again, last time we met was back in 2012
during the Ubuntu release party at Puppet Labs. Thanks Ben for putting that
on... I'd be willing to hang out till 8ish if Ben, Thomas, or other people
from out of town wanted to venture over to Broadway Coffeehouse.

As for Garten, Their G.E.A.R.S. Store is open on Fridays, except holidays,
from 11:00am – 3:00pm at
their Recycling Facility located on 3334 Industrial Way NE in Salem.  A
great place to pick up a reconditioned Lenovo Laptops, various memory, and
Intel CPUs.  Sorry AMD fans, most government agencies purchase Intel stuff.

Also there is Norvac Electronic Parts Store her in Salem, they carry a wide
variety of parts and cabling to fix up or hookup your electronic devices,
along with lots of cool LED strip lighting. Norvac is located at 2110
Commercial St NE, in Salem.

Sorry to sound like an ad campaign, however I'm the Self-appointed

And, as some of you know, my well laid out plan for technology dominating
Salem is workingLOL.

Yep the staff at OHSU are simply the very best at what they do.  Although
I'm not the one being operated on, thanks for wishing me luck.  With any
luck, I'll be back in time to attend the meeting.

[Ubuntu Oregon] Salem Ubuntu Meeting.

2017-02-15 Thread Phil N
Hi everyone,
Just letting you know the Salem Ubuntu Hour is taking place this coming
Friday, Feb 17th.
Salem Ubuntu Hour will take place downstairs in front of the fireplace at
Broadway Coffeehouse, located at 1300 Broadway St NE, in Salem.  The
festivities are from 6:00PM to 7:00PM.  For anyone interested in GNU/Linux
distributions, including our favorite Ubuntu distro, grab a warm drink and
come join us for some tech talk.

Typing of tech talk - Salem had it's first Makerspace kick-off event, which
had over 30 attendees with a wide diversification of skill sets and
interests, including those from the Linux community.  Flyers for Salem
Ubuntu Hour were distributed to those interested.

Sorry I may have to miss this Friday's Ubuntu meeting, as I'll be driving
back to Salem from OHSU about that time.  However, while at OHSU I'm
looking forward to partaking of their most excellent cuisine, and dealing
with their adroit academic professionals.

Should I get back early I'll most defiantly attend, however can't make any
promises at this time.

Have fun! everyone,
Phil. N.

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Won't make it today

2017-02-03 Thread Phil N
Please disregard my previous message, looks like the swapmeet is two weeks
away, so I have more time to cogitate, and procrastinate. ;-)

Just want to let those thinkers, and tinkers know; tomorrow from noon to
3pm at the Ike box in Salem, is a meeting on having a Makerspase in Salem.
More info at their meetup: https://www.meetup.com/Salem-Makerspace/  I'll
have some or our Ubuntu / Linux flyers printer up, and out on the table.

I'll be there this evening for Ubuntu Hour, weather permitting... Looking
forward to see you, and having something warm to drink..
Ciao
  Phil. N

Hi all,
We had a total of 6 members attend tonight's meeting, and had a great time
at Broadway Coffeehouse.
Big thanks to Cody for asking Che and Linda to attend, and for creating our
event page.  It was great to have met Che, Linda, and Tom.

We covered a wide range of topics; Linode.com - A Virtual Private Server
(VPN) service, Powerline - A status line plugin for Vim, Termite - An easy
to use and configure RS232 terminal program, Recalbox.com - A retro-gaming
operating systems with Kodi already included, and Recalbox runs on
Raspberry Pi.  Plus various ways to install Ubuntu in order to lock-it-down
making it more secure.

During the meeting, I promised I'd include some links to retro arcade
buttons, for that true authentic arcade feel.

The i-PAC2 is a USB "keyboard encoder" with 32 inputs and support for
trackball and spinner. Is fully programmable key code set.  The i-PAC2
looks to the host PC as a standard USB keyboard, which I really like
because there is no drivers to install.  The Mini-PAC is similar to i-PAC2
except Mini supports PS/2 via optional USB to PS/2 adapter.

The i-PAC2 and Mini-PAC can be found at ultimarc.com.

Here is where I've found some other arcade stuff, just do a search for
"arcade button", or "concave button" while at these sites.

Mouser: www.mouser.com
Concave Button - various colors, with Microswitch for $1.95/ea.
Note: Mouser purchases their buttons from Sparkfun, and sells them for the
same SRP.

Sparkfun: www.sparkfun.com
Concave Button - various colors, with Microswitch for $1.95/ea.

Banggood.com: www.banggood.com
Arcade button - various colors, with Microswitch for $1.69/ea.

Bob's parts: is the least expensive..
http://www.therealbobroberts.net/parts.html#buttons
Happ "Microswitch Pushbutton Complete" - various colors, with Microswitch
for $1.25/ea


Our next Salem Ubuntu Hour meetings will be February 3rd/17th, same bat
place, same bat time.

Thanks everyone for supporting our community, great meeting.
Phil. N.

[Ubuntu Oregon] Salem Ubuntu Hour.

2017-01-19 Thread Phil N
*Salem Ubuntu Hour* is scheduled for this Friday, January 20th, where there
will be a gathering of Ubuntu Linux enthusiasts at Broadway Coffeehouse,
located at 1300 Broadway St NE, here in Salem, from 6:00pm to 7:00pm.  Join
us for some Ubuntu served with your favorite Java, and a side of Linux
distros.

This month we will be in the Dallas Room, 204. The Dallas room, 204 is
located upstairs towards the back directly across from the elevators.  It
is the bigger of the Free conference rooms on the second floor and seats up
to 10 people comfortably, however it does not have a good Wi-Fi Internet
connection, because it's location is somewhat inside a cubbyhole (i.e Briar
Patch).  So communicating out of the Briar Patch is difficult...  For exact
room location see building layout here
<https://www.dropbox.com/sh/678r47twqe53gs6/AAAHYwclmbFmJ629bfPE6fwVa/Newsletter_Archive/Broadway_Commons_room_diagrams_v1.pd>
!

To help pay for our free room accommodations, Broadway Coffeehouse asks
that we please purchase something to drink.  They have a great assortment
of juices, teas, and coffees for under three dollars.

Cody has created a LoCo event page, please use the following link (below)
to his event page to register for this event, doing so will help us get
counted by Canonical, and help with further sponsorship.  - Thanks Cody

Event page: http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-us-or/3498-salem-
ubuntu-hour/ Please RSVP so the paperwork that wxl has to do is easier.

This month we may have some out of town guests, Che and Linda Dean,
visiting.  Che's first taste of Linux was OpenSUSE (KDE) and Ubuntu 8.04,
I've heard he is into retro gaming, big time, having installed various game
emulators on Ubuntu along with testing Zareason Zeto and SteamOS.  Che has
also been a contributor to the unofficial Ubuntu Manual project, covering
the Thunderbird section for both Ubuntu 11.10 and 12.04.

As a retro gamer myself, I'm looking forward to meeting with them too hear
more about Zareason Zeto and SteamOS.  Please join us in welcoming Che and
Linda to Salem Ubuntu Hour.

Thanks everyone,
Phil. N

[Ubuntu Oregon] Salem Ubuntu Hour - Conference room.

2017-01-17 Thread Phil N
Hi all,
I've recently been going down to Broadway Coffeehouse on occasion, for
those who may not know this is where we hold Ubuntu meetings in Salem
Oregon. While at Broadway Coffeehouse, I've noticed it's been getting a bit
packed lately, so I thought it best for this coming Friday's meeting to
request one of their free conference rooms located on the second floor.

We have not yet received approval for a conference room, however should we
get approved, I'll let everyone know what the room location and number is.
Until then, or in the event we don't get approval, we'll meet at the two
tables in front of fireplace.

This of course is dependent on weather conditions, which so far looks like
lots of rain... so situation normal for Salem. ;-)
Therefore meeting should take place as regularly scheduled for this Friday,
January 20th from 6:00pm to 7:00pm at Broadway Coffeehouse in Salem
Oregon.  Broadway Coffeehouse is located at 1300 Broadway St NE, Suite 100,
Salem, OR 97301.  With plenty of parking in back, off of 5th street.

Thanks everyone,
Phil. N

Hi Che, it would be great if you could make a meeting.  I found a couple of
connecting public transportation systems below that connect to Corvallis.
If ya both can make it to Salem air port, or the Amtrak / bus station hub,
I'd be glad to give you a ride to/from meeting. I have room for four
passengers, plus their tech bundle.

Email me beforehand to make sure I'm able to make the meeting myself.

*Linn-Benton Loop:*
Connecting Corvallis, Albany (including Amtrak Station), Oregon State
University, and Linn-Benton Community College.

Phone:   541-917-7667 <%28541%29%20917-7667>

*North by Northwest Connector:*
Coordinated regional transit connecting the Willamette Valley and coast.
Looks like they also go up to Portland by way of; Albany, Corvallis,
Newport, Lincoln City & Tillamook.

No problem Cody, just thought I'd be on-hand just in case someone
perseveres the cold weather to attend.
Besides this is where the warm drinks are LOL..  Went to a great
meeting yesterday on Immutable Infrastructure, so I'm just sitting here
doing some research while enjoying the warm atmosphere.

Ciao for now

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Salem Ubuntu Hour - pending to weather.

2016-12-14 Thread Phil N
O.K. Looking out the window at todays snowfall, I'd say Ubuntu Hour is
canceled for this Friday.

Thanks Ryein, and have a merry Christmas too.

Get well soon James, and take care of your Chromebook. Hopefully you both
get well real soon.

I agree w/ Cody, it's time to keep warm and stay inside; if anything else,
just to code or build a project or two.
See ya next year. Our next regularly scheduled meeting is January 6th,
weather permitting.

Happy holidays everyone, Merry Christmas, and happy new year.

[Ubuntu Oregon] Salem Ubuntu Hour - pending to weather.

2016-12-13 Thread Phil N
Hi Cody, Jim

Do we want to hold the Ubuntu Hour meeting this coming Friday, Dec 16th?

The weather forecast does not look that good, with snow arriving tomorrow
(Wednesday) and and more arriving Thursday.

Tonight (Tuesday) - Snow, mainly after 11am with freezing fog, so I would
avoid going out in that fog, one may freeze..

Wednesday - 1 to 3 inches of snow possible, with more possible on Thursday.

Friday's high 33 deg, so cold even without the snow.

Link to Forecast.
http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?CityName=Salem&state=OR

It's that time of season to bookmark the above link, if you haven't already.

Please advise,

Happy holidays everyone, and merry Christmas.

Thanks
Phil. N

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu Hour 10/21

2016-10-21 Thread Phil N
I maybe able to make this meeting.

I recently installed a full-install of Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS, and having some
issues with Skype, and Google-Talk.  Found its best to apt-get Skype verses
installing it from Skype.com. It seems the later (from Skype) does not
include status-bar message area for icon, where the repository does.

Also note: For those using Skype, the application is no longer supported,
in favor of their newer Cloud version, which is browser-based.  I
personally don't want to constantly keep a browser window open, so I can
receive Skype calls, so I'm glad I could get it working with Ubuntu
16.04.1.  I'll talk more about this topic this evening.

Thanks for the meeting reminder,

Phil. N

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu Hour or State Fair, conundrum.

2016-09-01 Thread Phil N
Good point James makes - It's a three-day weekend, so some people maybe
gone for the weekend.

My tentative plan, is being at Broadway Coffeehouse (our clubhouse) from
5:00pm to about 6:30pm, this way we can at least attempt to keep with
consistent branding / scheduling, just in case someone shows up for the
Ubuntu meeting.  Glad to hear Cody can make it to the clubhouse at 5 also.

I would like to catch the last part of the Motorsports Championships,
featuring Monster Trucks and Tuff Trucks, as I've never seen them before.
So I plan to leave Ubuntu hour early at 6:30pm, and head to the fair.

This is of course, contingent on me bing able to leave the office before 5
o'clock, so again this is my tentative "dream" plan... LOL.

Ciao for now
 Phil. N

[Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu Hour or State Fair, conundrum.

2016-09-01 Thread Phil N
As most of you know, this Friday, September 2nd, is our scheduled Salem
Ubuntu Hour, normally held at Broadway Coffeehouse at 6pm.
Also taking place this Friday Sept 2nd is Oregon State Fair's "Mighty
Friday"  - That means fair admission is just $1 all day long, plus
admission includes concert, and all events.

That being said; what do we want to do?
Q1. Do we want to cancel this Friday's Salem Ubuntu Hour do to the fair,
move meeting time up one hour, or perhaps, all meet somewhere at the State
Fare?

As for myself, I'm in favor of meeting at Broadway one hour early (5:00pm),
then heading to the State Fair.  Below are some attractions you may be
interested in seeing while at the fair, which also take place Friday Sept
2nd.  If anyone is interested in ride sharing to the fair, please let me
know, and I can meet you at Broadway at 5:00pm.


*Motorsports  Championships:*
The finals of the Northwest Motorsports Series Spectacular, featuring
Monster Trucks and Tuff Trucks.
Friday, Sept. 2nd, 6:00-7:30 pm
At the State Fair’s Machine Mania Pavilion.

*Montgomery Gentry concert:*
Friday, Sept. 2nd, 7:00 PM
Approximately 6,000 general admission seats for each concert are FREE with
paid admission to the Fair on a first come, first served basis.
Or advance VIP tickets for $35. Your VIP ticket entitles you to: Reserved
Seating, Admission to the Fair.

*S.T.R.E.A.M:*
STREAM focuses on six aspects of education - Science, Technology, Reading,
Engineering, Arts and Math.

STREAM - First Robotics Competition Stronghold.
High school teams compete head to head on a special playing field with
robots they have designed, built, and programmed.
Friday, September 2nd.
Time: unknown.

*Glen’s Gizmos:*
A traveling museum composed of well over 60 hands-on learning stations that
bring science, technology, engineering, art and math to schools and venues
like the Oregon State Fair.

*Artisans Village:*
The annual gathering of artisans from Oregon and beyond.

*Laser / Pyrotechnics event:*
Oregon State Fair is proud to present a very dynamic, 10-minute laser and
special effects pyrotechnics event.
Nightly from 9:45pm to 9:55pm.

General Fare Parking is $5.00.

Please let me know what the general consensus is regarding holding Salem
Ubuntu Hour at the fair, or perhaps holding it earlier at Broadway, or
canceling it, do to fair.

Best regards
 Phil. N

This Friday, June 17th, there will be a festive gathering of Linux / Ubuntu
enthusiasts at Broadway Coffeehouse, 1300 Broadway St NE, here in Salem,
from 6:00pm to 7:00pm.  Join us for some Ubuntu served with your favorite
Java, and a side of Linux distros.  Or perhaps a cup of Java to stimulate
your Java programming... Which I guess is a double-shot of Java.  As for
myself, a cup of Java-input gets converted to Python-output... LOL.

Currently learning Python using the Spyder IDE, along with tutorials
from Professor
Easton <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5GevIHNctM> on YouTube.

FYI: This Friday evening, I'll be getting back into Salem a little later,
so hopefully I'll be able to make it on time for the meeting.

Happy coding.
