I have been using ASUS P4S333VM motherboard for the past 2 years. 1. SiS Chipset 650 for display 7012 for sound Most of my friends, where I installed RH9 (a year ago), had Intel based motherboards, (845/865). __________________________________________________________ Yahoo!

If > you dont have the cds you ask if some lug members > have it. As suggested by Mr. Vihang Dudhalkar, I would too, suggest you to try Ubuntu 6.06 / Fedora Core 5, for a newer computer. For obtaining CD's, you can either check the following page http://db.glug-bom.org/wiki/index.php/CDs_Available Locate a person who stays nearer to your suburb, and you could obtain a copy of GNU/Linux that he/she has. or if you have sufficient data transfer rate and capacity, you may download the ISO's from any one of the following websites. 1. http://www.ubuntu.com/download 2. http://fedora.redhat.com/Download __________________________________________________________ Yahoo!

concept for vertual weakly meets, suggestions please?
by krishnakant Mane 25 Sep '06

25 Sep '06

hello all. with so many topics and threads I came up with an idea. I can see some topics are like "how can i ... on my linux machine". they can be answered in a couple of emails. but then there are some project related emails and some are already being taken seriously. so why don't we meet on line may be once in 7 days? yahoo messenger would be a nice protocol because some are in the process of shifting to linux and still windows is used. take for example that radio guided sign post. may be all our friends can't meet physically in the meeting but jentelman, we all can at least make some time and meet on line? the latest issue was about promoting linux in the local market and schools. we can discuss a lot on line. what do you all think? if I am stupid, just delete this email. *smile*.

No please! Yahoo messenger is evil! IRC would be the best methinks. I don\'t know how your screenreader works, but I suppose you can use CGI:IRC. -- ---------------------------------------- Mrugesh Karnik GPG Key 0xBA6F1DA8 Public key on http://wwwkeys.pgp.net ----------------------------------------
