My suggestion for April's Meeting would be tools within the F/OSS community that will help with day to day business to improve inter-office communication. Tools included within the presentation will include but not limited to.
Tools will include
- Phone Systems
- Group Calibration Platform
- Email
- Calenders Free/Busy
- Information Logs
- Address Book
- Syncing information between devices such as cell phones and PDA's
This is a presentation topic proposal.
Linux will do many things, "Auto-magically." This presentation discusses the different methods of making things happen automatically in Linux so that it works like magic.
Topics to be covered will include:
A) Per computer magic
1) inittab
2) init.d scripts
3) ???
B) Magic for a specific user
1) ~/.bash_profile
2) ~/.bashrc
3) ~/.profile
C) Magic for every user
1) /etc/profile
If there is enough interest in this topic we'll need to flesh out the presentation and find a presenter for it.
MythTV is a collection of Linux programs that create a media center. It allows you collect all of your important media (movies, TV, music, family photos, CambridgeLUG presentations) and makes them available to all of the media devices on your network.
This introduction to MythTV will demonstrate the features of a media center and several common uses. A discussion will include Planning, Hardware selection, Installation, Configuration, and Lessons Learned.
This is a sample topic suggestion. A volunteer to present this topic is welcome.
The members of CambridgeLUG present topics at our meetings that are of interest to attendees. Those topics range from introductions to concepts to intermediate skills development to deeply technical coverage of advanced topics.
