I'd be curious to know how many of us would be sticking with Gnome 3 in the upgrade or keeping it Gnome 2-style with something like MATE. I have accepted that gnome3 is OK so long as 'classic mode' is available. I have installed cinnamon and given it a try but prefer the gnome2 look. Cinnamon has had several updates on my sid box since I installed it but I haven't looked at it to see what has been changed. Mate hasn't been packaged for Debian although mate-common is in experimental so don't think mate is the way to go at the moment unless you are happy to use non-debian packages for it. I had a go a few days ago at upgrading one of my laptops to wheezy but it was going to need tons of packages so gave up on it for now. I am going to wait a while before thinking of up-grading my VPS though I should really do it before geneweb 6.07 migrates into wheezy. I have tried it out from experimental and don't like some of the changes the developers have made since 6.05. -- John Lewis Debian the GeneWeb genealogical data server -- Please post to: Hampshire@mailman.lug.org.uk Web Interface: https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hampshire LUG URL: http://www.hantslug.org.uk --

Re: [Hampshire] Admin: May Meeting
A second follow-up message from me: Due to unforeseen circumstances (a Peregrine falcon in the wrong place), there is no coverage from the Vodafone network across campus at the moment. It's been like this for 3 weeks now, and we've got to wait until the bird's young have left before Vodafone can fix the mast. All other major networks are largely unaffected by this. Please be aware of this if you rely on other people for transport and either they or you are on Vodafone. Regards, Chris On 01/05/13 22:26, Tim Brocklehurst wrote: Hi guys!

Hi, This is the confirmation of Saturday's meeting. Note that it's from 10am until 2pm (only) our host has exams and can't be there all the time and the meeting is therefore slightly trimmed. You will see that a few people have offered talks so it should be a good meeting.

Re: [Hampshire] [ADMIN] May Meeting
Hi Chris, Yes, this is a on-going issue and we do need to address this. I do happen to know that the Ubuntu Developer Sumit does have IRC channels to allow users that cannot attend the summit to particpate. We could have a server hosting a webcam feed, a projector projecting the irc channel for two way contact and a feed showing the presentation. As for you, could Jon send you the talk in video/audio form?
