March Meeting: SETI and Wine Date: March 3, 2009 at 7 p.m. Location: Algonquin College (Woodroffe Campus), room T117 Using Gnu Radio for SETI Speaker: Marcus Leech The speaker will describe some current work at SBRAC with a SETI spectrometer with high bandwidth and high resolution using Gnu Radio, and a beefy desktop computer running Fedora 10. Shirleys Bay Radio Astronomy Consortium http://www.sbrac.org 30 - 45 minutes Wine Appreciation Speaker: Alan German Wine Is Not an Emulator; the software translates calls to the Windows Application Programming Interface into Posix code and allows Windows programs to run under Linux (and certain other operating systems). But, the Windows API's are Huge, not well documented, full of tricky behaviours and side effects - and no source code is available - to non-residents of Redmond, WA! Not surprising then, that it took 15 years to provide the first stable release - Wine 1.0. We will take a look at how to implement Wine, install and run Windows applications, and review a number of sources that can provide further information and some special assistance. 30 - 45 minutes April Meeting: 2009 AGM Date: April 7, 2009 at 7 p.m. Location: Algonquin College (Woodroffe Campus), room T117 OCLUG Annual General Meeting We still need speakers for this meeting _______________________________________________ Linux mailing list Linux@lists.oclug.on.ca http://oclug.on.ca/mailman/listinfo/linux
