Wine
by Billy Crook 09 May '07

09 May '07

Wine is Windows Emulation. It lets you run most windows programs in Linux. The important thing to remember is that there are better programs in Linux than in windows. But if you have to keep a windows program after you install Linux, Wine can let you keep running some of your old windows programs.

General Apology,
by Earle Beason 08 May '07

08 May '07

I didn't realize how much of an impact that last message would have, I will take responsibility and admit there was a definite misunderstanding within the communication. I will acknowledge that until yesterday, I had been ghosting, and trying to pick up tips on the stuff I didn't know, I didn't know. With the comments sent out yesterday, I felt the attitude should have been addressed. My first encounter with Linux was in 1997, I think it was slackware. I was on a deployment on the USS Leyte Gulf. I was toying around with a cast off laptop. My only connection with any information was this jerk that had the attitude "I better then you because I know." His attitude turned me away from Linux, and Linux Users. About six months ago a security guard I worked with told me about Linux. He allowed me to put a portion of my server/processing stuff and his Laptop for a week. P3, 800 MHz, it out performed my P4 3 GHz. I bought his desktop that had fedora 5 loaded on it and nearly killed myself out of the frustration in the first two months. When I loaded ZOG and got my web space backup, I was defiantly pleased with the results. Since then I have met scores of Linux users who has this attitude the Linux is an elite club and membership is limited to fat greasy slobs living in the mothers basement. Ok well may that a bit of an exaggeration, but it serves the point. Until recently stumbling across the Craig’s list “Linux forum,” all my Linux contacts had been “in person” I personally feel that Linux should be given to anybody who asks, and a definite pedagogical relationship should be started with every individual who wants to know how to use Linux. It kind of like the old proverb, “In order to think, you must realize you’re capable of doing so” I think what you meant to say is that the TROLLS, are unworthy of attention. Be at peace Earle

Fwd: Ubuntu ShipIt
by Justin Dugger 08 May '07

08 May '07

A few lunches ago, someone jokingly suggested putting an Ubuntu CD in every dorm room as a way to get rid of all my spare CD-Rs I'm never gonna use. Since the people present were receptive to the idea, I decided to follow up on it. The Ubuntu people responded positively, but balked at the number we'd need. So at this point we have a few choices: * Make do with the 200 they've offered * Make our own from CD-Rs and labels * Ask for more from the right people within Ubuntu * Find sponsorship from local and Ubuntu related interests (ie Canonical, maybe Dell) So what's needed from the LUG now is opinions on the options, and of course alternative suggestions.

WELL, I usually one to promote free speech, however this is a travesty, I would be one of those "LUSERS" who happen to be running a windows XP (X3), Windows XP pro, Fedora 5 and Fedora 6 on different machines, Yes that 6 different computers. The wife and I are moving to an all Linux powered network Your nasty attitude about window users is exactly the crap the put me off from Linux for over a decade. From what I have read on this forum, If I handed my 4 year old the keyboard she would still be more productive then you at promoting Linux, mainly because she don't know how to talk trash. Both my wife are the so called "Least Common Denominator Users," Quite frankly I don't understand Linux, I don't know how to code , I don't know all the in and outs, however I am learning it as I go. What I do know is that I can install Fedora, Ubuntna, and Suse, and then get open office to cover the applications, and livina to cover movies and MP3s. With Linux seemingly o have everything built in I can google warrior any problem and get it fixed. So far my job, friends and family are impressed with the Linux system I put on their computers. I even got a dude I gave some computers to through craigslist, to format his drives and purge the illegal copy of Microsoft XP, and load fedora 6; He is happy with Linux At my job a twenty minute demonstration on a Linux laptop, got positive responses. My boss and several of my coworkers are starting to play with Linux, so far everyone has had good results in whatever application their running I climb off my hate-box now and ask for you to STFU and try doing something productive like educating all the poor who have illegal copies of Microsoft, on using a Linux system. You might find the "Least Common Denominator Users," are actually pretty intelligent people who are unaccustomed to the power of a Linux Machine and just need to be clued in Earle kclug-request(a)kclug.org wrote: >Send Kclug mailing list submissions to > kclug(a)kclug.org > >To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://kclug.org/mailman/listinfo/kclug >or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > kclug-request(a)kclug.org > >You can reach the person managing the list at > kclug-owner(a)kclug.org > >When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific >than "Re: Contents of Kclug digest..." > > >Today's Topics: > > 1.
