  • Favorite Linux Commands – Sam Williams will be starting out the new year discussions several of his favorite Linux commands.
  • Enlightenment Desktop – Sam Williams will be completing his demonstration of Enlightenment 17 release ZERO. Last month you could see that the desktop could easily be used on lower resource hardware. This month we will go into the mechanics of how you can use this desktop on any number of computers.
  • Version Control Basics – Sam Williams will begin a multi-part series of presentations on version control tools, practices, and methods. Tonight he will start us off with a basic discussion of the fundamental concepts.

Just a reminder to everyone that we will have our December LUG meeting  at 6:30pm on Thursday, December 13th at Rasmussen College (room 403 / fourth floor).  Currently, the agenda is as follows:

  • USB Thumbdrives  – Sam Williams is going to discussion using USB drives with Linux and dealing with a couple of common issues that most people should be aware of when using them.
  • Enlightenment / Raspberry Pi – We all strive for enlightenment, particularly after  our last major  political season, but Sam Williams wants to bring enlightening news of  a different sort. It seems that a very long running development cycle for the Enlightenment Window Manager (E17)  is coming to a close and release is at hand. Here comes some historic perspective and an exposure to some awesome technology. Sam will demonstrate the low resource, but full powered desktop on a Raspberry Pi. The RPi of course  has limited cpu and ram resources and is a perfect platform for showing the minimal requirments for E17. By the end of the meeting you will get an idea why if we aren’t obliterated on 12/21/12 you might want to give this environment a look!
Hope you all can come out and catch up.
