Check the mailing list for individuals hosting in-person clusters.

Request for volunteers to give talks, short or long, for future 
meetings: If you have a Linux related presentation or demo you'd be 
comfortable sharing with the group, or a discussion topic you wish to 
introduce, then please let us know.


Topics

1. Short presentation, and feedback request from Tug Williams "What 
can go wrong? Linux and the bs wifi driver" - Installing Linux on a 
2013 HP Pavilion x2 and discovering unreliable RTL8723BS driver.


2. Regular lightning / open mic spot. We want to encourage everyone to 
bring up a tip or discussion topic, so we will have a regular spot 
(though last month was fully consumed by a very interesting discussion 
on the Wacom One)

Re: [linux] OCLUG meeting Thursday June 1st 2023

2023-05-31 Thread Katherine Mcmillan
If there is a need for discussion topics, something that I have dug out since 
my presentation on using a Wacom One with Linux and some open source drawing 
applications is a security concern with the Wacom One, and how to prevent it.  
It is a reminder to read Terms of Service, even on drivers, and highlights how 
open source software can elevate security (keep in mind, I used the Wacom 
drivers in openSUSE).

I don't have a formal presentation on this, but I could put together a couple 
of slides quite quickly, as it's just building on the last presentation.

I'm talking less about this issue (although this is also interesting): 
https://support.wacom.com/hc/en-us/articles/4416158931863-Log4J-and-the-Wacom-Driver-Software
and more about this:

Sincerely,
