Re: [ilugd] Use for a really old PC?
Anupam Jain [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Hi all, Any suggestions on how to use an ageing PC (P2 333 MHz, 128 MB RAM, 10GB HDD, No CDROM, No Ethernet)? Would trying to convert it to a data/media server for my home LAN (if I attach a larger HDD and an ethernet card to it) be an exercise in futility? Should I just trash it instead? Probably have enough horsepower to * make a backup pc (backuppc.sourceforge.net) - maybe after adding usb cards for extra offsitednessosityisness TM * make a recording studio? (add soundcards, Rs100 each 2nd hand) * make a wan aggregator (ebox, pfsense) for SMEs or for yourself - needs lan cards ( maybe Rs100 each second hand) If you have enough slots you can surely do fun stuff with it.

There is no single package which contains all the required files Download the rpmforge-release rpm from the below link http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/rpmforge-release/ Once you download this link issue the below command On Fedora box: yum install vlc It will install vlc on your system. (Kmenu - Multimedia) For XMMS Click on the Kmenu and then on Multimedia.

[ilugd] workshop at IIT Roorkee
Hi, There is going to be a workshop on the 10th at IIT Roorkee to discuss how best FOSS and OSS be integrated into the curriculum and utilised in the University. The practice of NRC-FOSS in such meetings is to invite people from the community to present FOSS. NRC-FOSS will be represented at this meeting by Prof CN Krishnan, and we would like some one from the community in Delhi to make the general presentation. Audience: Senior professors and lecturers of the IIT Presentation: About one hour covering FOSS/OSS and open standards. The audience may not be FOSS-aware, but will certainly be computer aware. You may check out http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/news/NW/ for some reports of similar workshops held by us. Any one interested may contact me offlist. We will look after travel and accommodation. -- regards Kenneth Gonsalves Associate, NRC-FOSS [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://nrcfosshelpline.in/code/ ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - February 22-24, 2008 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
