Winter Storm Warning…

This is just a reminder to everyone that we are utilizing the IRC chat rooms for last minute meeting updates, cancellation, or postponements, etc.  With the winter weather in full swing, I would rather have a way for everyone to get up-to-date last minute updates, or cancellation on our monthly meetings, rather than risk anyone’s health driving out to meetings…

To get into the IRC chat room just click the IRC tab on the top of this page.

UPDATE: New User registration is now back open… We have implemented a few new security features that we hope will restore full user functionality and help cut the spam.

Meeting 9/6

August 26th, 2008 Posted in Default | 2 Comments »

We will be having a mixed bag of topics for the next meeting on September 6th.

We will be installing and discussing dd-wrt. Dd-wrt is open firmware designed to replace small networking device firmware. It has advanced features to gain extra performance and use your device to its full potential, especially compared to the stock factory firmware. We will be installing onto a Linksys wrt54gs device.

We will also be doing a demo of Compiz Fusion, a set of plugins and a configuration system for the Compiz window manager. Compiz Fusion allows you to add extra eye candy and special effects to your desktop.

As always we will be meeting in conference room 3 at the Hamot Heart Institute located at 120 E 2nd St, Erie, PA. All are welcomed to attend.
