Hello everyone,

Just a two-day reminder for the next meeting. Normal place (Southampton Uni, 
Building 59) but starting at 1pm this time. We have a good line-up this month; 
We will have a Raspberry PI to play with; I will be giving a demonstration on 
how to analyse high-speed interface signals with minimal equipment. Chris will 
be available to talk about the website, and John might be coaxed into demoing 
the network security game he posted about a few days ago.

See you there!

Tim B.

With regards to the website, I've created a potential alternative to the 
existing wiki at http://hants.lug.org.uk/wp
It's WordPress-powered, and should allow more flexibility in terms of 
content, styling, and controlling access.


Please have a look, and bring your comments and ideas to the meeting on 
Saturday.


If you want a userid to allow you to add stuff, please email me at

[Hampshire] [ADMIN] January Meeting

2012-12-27 Thread Tim Brocklehurst
Well, Merry Christmas everyone! Hope everyone had a good time.

Just a quick heads-up for the January meeting. It will be held on the 12th at 
our usual place. Southampton Uni, Building 59. We'll be trying a slightly 
different format this time. We will start at 1pm and end at 4pm. We're trying 
this because I've noticed that there is not a huge turnout until about 12 
anyway.

I will have a Raspberry PI (and screen this time) available for people to play 
with. I can also demonstrate how to analyse some of the signals output by the 
Pi; Especially those that are too fast for a normal volt-meter to capture.

If anyone wants to give a talk, let me know.

See you there,

New Year Greetings!

Thanks to a keen LUG member and new student at the University we 
have been able to secure a room booking for 15 January 2011 in our 
usual room at the University.

Details will follow, but it should be a normal meeting and normal 
meeting protocol will apply.

If you want to give a talk please let me know asap. If people want 
me to update my old udev talk let me know and I'll do an updated 
version.

 Sorry, I have forgotten - if I have registered my details in the past,

[Hampshire] [ADMIN] January Meeting

2009-12-14 Thread Hants LUG Chairman
Hi,

Seasonal greeting to everyone!

For the new year meeting on 16th of January I have a special new year guest!

I have been in contact contact with Daniel James: director of 64 Studio Ltd, 
a company that produces a 64–bit GNU/Linux distribution designed specifically 
for creative users, and does custom development work for OEMs with multimedia 
products. He worked on LinuxUser  Developer magazine for around seven years, 
serving as editor from autumn 2005 until early 2007.

Over the last few years, his media work has expanded to include a long–held 
interest in sound recording, with several music and voice–over projects 
completed at his own studio. He also contributes regular articles on music 
recording and related technology to Linux Format and Sound on Sound 
magazines.

He will talk about his work with digital media on Linux and I already have a 
copy of his latest book Crafting Digital Media ready for review.

I have quite a few Python books for review along with the first wave of 
O'Reilly book.

If I get time to complete it properly I'll also give my desktop virtualisation 
talk I previously offered.

If you would like to give a talk or have a talk request please let me or any 
committee member know.

Looking forward to seeing everyone in the new year!

[Hampshire] [ADMIN] January Meeting

2009-01-16 Thread Hants LUG Chairman
Hi,

This is your final reminder of this month's meeting.

WHEN:   17 January 2009, 10:00am - 4:30pm
WHERE:  Southampton University Seminar Room 1
TALKS:  12:00 Digital Photography on Linux by Tony Whitmore
13:00 A look ahead to Ubuntu 9.04 by Alan Pope

If you plan on attending, ideally you need to send your name to Damian Brasher 
before the meeting starts, otherwise you may find it hard to get in.

If you want to use the campus wireless Internet you must send you MAC address 
that you will be using to Damian Brasher by 16:30 today - in which case you 
need a time machine...

We need people to volunteer for the Meeting and Greeting table which is 
important:  http://www.hants.lug.org.uk/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?GreetingPeople  which 
is probably more important now that the new building is complete and has a 
nice security guard on the front door.


There are lots of requested talks on the Wiki and quite a few offered talks 
but not many people have actually come forward with talks. I know it takes 
effort to do but I believe that a few talks at each meeting do add a lot to 
the meetings. If anyone is keen to give a talk please let me or any other 
committee member know. To the people who have given talks in the past, my 
thanks, I know it's cheeky but are any of your happy to repeat any of them?

Look forward to seeing people tomorrow!

:) Not that LUG members are a know to be rampaging hooligans, vandals or
thief's. Security is new a formality at the Uni which is more so the case
everywhere these days. Yes, the new building has naturally led to an
increased security awareness. The Uni are still committed to assist and
help maintain the local Open Source community, HLUG, where possible.

Thanks Damian

Hello,

This is a reminder that this month's meeting will NOT be taking place on the 
10th of January as originally planned but one week later on Saturday the 17th 
of January. See earlier emails for an explanation.

If you intend to go to the meeting please email Damian with your name before 
the meeting as he will be providing the security guard with a list of names. 
If you're name is not on the list you may not be able to get in. The 
university are giving us the space for free and they don't want anything bad 
to happen to their shiny new building.

If you are planning on visiting and you wish to use the wireless network 
please also provide your MAC address when you email Damian. Details are on 
the wiki and in previous emails.

There is one confirmed talk on digital photography from a Linux perspective 
and the possibility of more talks.

As ever there are more details on the web site.

http://www.hants.lug.org.uk/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?17January2009

I hope to see everyone a week on Saturday and if you do turn up tomorrow 
please let us know how the University Seminar went...
