WHAT: NBLUG General Meeting WHERE: O'Reilly (see NBLUG website for specifics) WHEN: December 12th, 2000 @ 7:30PM ---- Greetings everyone! It's that time again. Our General Meeting is almost here. This month we're going to be showing you how to setup multiple monitors on your Linux box. This is great for those that have two 17" monitors lying around, but don't have the dough to spring for that super-sexy 21" Sony. You can place your two 17's next to each other and get something very usable. Brad, Eric and myself will be singing and dancing our way to Xinerama, so be sure to show up early!! For those who couldn't make it last month, we had a great presentation from Steve Giles of OpenNMS.org. He gave a really great talk about the OpenNMS project. Basically, OpenNMS, in it's current state, allows you to monitor your network and display alarms when something breaks or does something outside of your desired parameters. I'd encourage all of you to take a look at their web site. Steve mentioned he'd be willing to come back if we had enough people show an interest in hearing him speak again, so drop me a line if you'd like that and we'll see what we can do to setup another visit by Steve. Don't forget to show up slightly before the meeting starts at 7:30, as we stop handing out tickets for the door prizes once the meeting gets underway. Also, keep an eye out for an announcement for our next InstallFest which we are currently planning on having in February. See you all in a little over a week! -Dustin -- Founder & President The North Bay Linux Users' Group http://www.nblug.org/ dustin(a)nblug.org
