Dear GLLUG- 

I wonder if there might not be a lot of use for the following versions of
Linux: SuSe 10.3 and SuSe 11.0. As these two operating systems support
one click installation of "ZoneMinder" a popular web camera control
software package. What do you gentlemen think?

  I have a room at Penguicon that should have adequate space for four people.
  I did have a full roster, but two people backed out. If you want a place to
  crash and would like to pay far less than the full price of the room, let
  me know. With 4 people, we can get the price down to around $50 per person
  for the whole weekend. Room is non-smoking and will be in a designated
  quiet area.

  Busy weekend getting ready for Penguicon.

  All of the beer is now in kegs.  The two beers we made back in February
  both have very full kegs, which means they absorb CO2 much more slowly. 
  That's okay, because the style for both beers is for lower CO2.  Just
  the same, I'll keep them under gas until Penguicon, so they'll be better
  carbonated for the party.

  I started assembly of the bar.  It will keep the kegs and gas equipment
  out of sight and out of harm's way, and make a decent pouring surface.
  The structure can be broken down without tools, and it will fit in the
  back seat of my car.  I'll finish it with spar urethane, the same finish
  they use for boats, so when we spill beer it won't stain or damage anything.

  Finally, the burnbox is nearly ready to go, but I'll probably be poking
  at it throughout the week.  The hardware is assembled, OS is installed,
  and I have images for Ubuntu 8.10, FreeBSD 7.1 and OpenBSD 4.4. It wants
  some software and configuration tweaks, and there are some problems with
  error handling.

  I would like to know what people want to see for images on the box.
  There are a couple of factors though:

  1. I have no interest in downloading every obscure Linux distro under
  the sun.  We have one good distro that will fill the needs of 90% of our
  guests, so I don't want to waste my time downloading a bunch of extra
  stuff that won't get used by more than one person.

  2. Rescue CDs are good, but we don't need a dozen of them.

  3. A CD full of open source software for Windows would be nice to have. 
  If somebody could point me to a good distro I would like that.

  Clay,

  Do we have DVD-R support this time?

  Clay,

  I've never used it, but I had this link to "The Open Disc", which may fit the 
  bill:

     http://www.theopendisc.com<http://www.theopendisc.com/>

  The "About" page says: 

  --------------------

  OpenDisc is a high quality collection of open source software (OSS) for the 
  Microsoft Windows operating system. The two main goals of the project are: 

     To provide a free alternative to costly software, with equal or often 
  better quality equivalents to proprietary, shareware or freeware software for 
  Microsoft Windows.

     To educate users of Linux as an operating system for home, business and 
  educational use.

  The majority of programs featured on OpenDisc are also available on Linux.

  --------------------

  This project is a "fork" of 'The Open CD' which, according to the webpage 
  for 'The Open CD', "is no longer under active development".

  HTH....

  Bill Marr
