Wow, this sorta... Snuck up on me. MythTV 0.22 won't be released by next week, and there won't be a new MythDora release just yet, but I think there's still plenty to talk about... :) Now, I don't actually have anything prepared yet, so hey, why not get the ball rolling now: what exactly do people planning to attend most want to hear about? VDPAU? The HD PVR? New and interesting things in the world of LIRC?

Boston Linux Meeting Wed, July 15, 2009 Another Look at MythTV and MythDora
When: July 15, 2009 7PM (6:30PM for Q&A) Topic: Building an open-source PVR (TiVo workalike) with Fedora Moderator: Jarod Wilson Location: MIT Building E51, Room 315 Jarod discusses the current state of MythTV, which is expected to have a new release (MythTV 0.22) shortly before the date of this meeting. Jarod is involved in the MythDora project, which maintains a simple installation ISO image based on Fedora. Back in January 2009, the MythDora project announced that MythDora had finally been updated to catch up with the Fedora baseline, and as of the 10.21 release, MythDora was now based on the still-new Fedora 10. With luck, a new release of MythDora based on Fedora 11 and MythTV 0.22 may be released before the date of this meeting.

OpenSSH vulnerability?
I've been looking around for more information about OpenSSH's rumored vulnerability. I guess I'm just out of the underground loop for security exploits. The best I can find is just the obvious rumor stuff at: http://isc.sans.org/diary.html?storyid=6742 Anyone here have any more information? -N ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/

Big company buys smaller company. Keeps things the same for a while then screws up web site and makes it harder for their customers. Been there, seen that, worked for similar big companies ;^) -Alex P.S. It's not like Linksys had great support. I don't know if they ever did but it's pretty much useless now. I base that on clueless support personnel that told the customer to "press and hold the reset button for 15 seconds" and thus erased the existing configuration (VPN tunnel and ISP setup).

Re: It appears that Cisco has decided to deep six the Linksys line...
Not at all... I was at Cisco Live! in SF last week. They are just re-labeling and repackaging Linksys... Typical marketing stuff which is a PITA for us!

It appears that Cisco has decided to deep six the Linksys line...
Or at least they've made getting information on Linksys products a lot harder by completely changing the Linksys web site. I just spent a good ten minutes tracking down information on the RVL200 (SSL VPN router). Quite painful and not a good way to sell products or perhaps that's the idea... -Alex ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
