Only occasionally needed a venue at UC Davis, and in the past we had
CS Club helping us a lot.

Correct.  Alex typo'd.  Was supposed to go to vox & vox-officers, not
vox and vox-tech.

But hey, all you people are crawling out of the woodwork. ;)

Maybe the old-timers around here can help out, but isn't there a reason
we didn't do this years ago?

[vox-tech] Campus Affiliation

2009-07-14 Thread Alex Mandel
So I was poking around looking for meeting rooms on campus and noticed
that LUGOD could be eligible to officially book rooms(I'm sure there are
limits) on campus when we need.

To become a campus affiliate group here's what it takes:
10 UC Davis employees, students, alumni, and spouses of employees or
students
$35 a year

I think this might be a good investment so we can directly book rooms
for meetings or Installfests on campus without having to jump through
departmental hoops every time.

If so we'll need 9 other UC affiliates to step up and volunteer to put
their names on the application. 2 of us will be the official Business
Representatives, ie the 2 people who can call in and make the reservations.

Thanks,
Alex

There's TightVNC and UltraVNC, but I haven't used either one so can't 
advise on clipboard capabilities.

Another option would be to use NoMachine's NX instead of VNC.  Pretty 
much identical capabilities as VNC, and it's supposed to be faster too. 
  I just verified that copy and paste from client to server works under 
NX (or at least it does when testing with two Linux+KDE machines).

HTH,
