Re: flux
I like the heat out here. I whenever I needed to go into the attic when I was working in the middle of summer most people were so apologetic about it. It is like a summer day in phoenix is all that it is. No problem at all. Those were the days!

Re: [Flux-announce] ACM SIGGRAPH Electronic Theater on Tuesday 9/23
Phoenix (PLUG) is much more active! Here is an example of a healthy group: Go join them all are welcome there. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello group: This is the short story: I live in Georgia (see http://hangglide.com/ :) and my mother in law lives in Chandler. I set up for her a Linux computer that may have a hardware problem. She has some limitations that prevent her from reaching the back of the computer and plugging and unplugging cables. I called the Geek Squad for help and they are more than willing to bill me $250 to get there and tell me if they can boot (or not) the computer from a CD. I need someone to visit her, diagnosis whether we have a hardware problem and if not, boot the machine with an Ubuntu CD (or whatever) so I can SSH into and fix any other issue. I'll be more than willing to return the favor with flight instruction, anything from a hang glider to a twin engine... :) Thanks! Enrique A. Troconis PS: I can also help anyone with some geeky Linux stuff... --- On Thu, Sep 18, 2008 at 7:20 AM, Stephen P Rufle Do you still need help with this? I live in Chandler, so I could drop by your mother in law's. Stephen P Rufle [EMAIL PROTECTED] H2:480-802- Dazed_75 writes: And if Stephen does not work out, I am certain we could work it out (I am involved with the Sunland Village East group). Without publicizing her address, perhaps you could give a closer indication of her location than just saying Chandler. Also a minimum description of the hardware could help in choosing the right person. I will try to check email later today. Man, you guys are GREAT!!! I've gotten so many people willing to help that I will have to do something to return this favor to humanity The lady is fairly crippled and we are fairly away... She is around the corner of Riggs McQueen. If I remember well, it is some sort of AMD motherboard with one or 2 GB of memory running Kubuntu. Some time ago the machine refused to boot and I sent her a Kubuntu CD to boot it from so I could diagnose it, but the machine refuses to boot even with the CD. It could be a burnt MB, a broken CD drive or an ID-10-T, error, I don't know... THANKS! Enrique A. Troconis PS: And I'll be glad to take anybody flying. Anything for the addiction... :) --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
