The next CPLUG meeting will be Tuesday, May 11, 2010 at 6:30 PM.
Doug will be talking about all things RAID! RAID, an acronym for redundant array of independent disks or also known as redundant array of inexpensive disks, is a technology that allows high levels of storage reliability from low-cost and less reliable PC-class disk-drive components, via the technique of arranging the devices into arrays for redundancy.
See you there!
Hi,
I live in Highspire and I just today discovered that there actually IS a Linux users’ group here in Dauphin County. I hope to make it to your next meeting on the 11th, barring any transportation issues. I am somewhat of a newb to Linux, and have only recently begun to delve into it because of my interest in Asterisk PBX telephony applications. My skill level would have to be Beginner at this point, since I know at this point how to change directories, use Nano to edit, and some other basic functions such as cp, rm, rmdir, etc. I find it difficult however to remember all the flags available with diff. commands, and also all the diff. program-initiating commands used in the CLI. I hope I can learn a more efficient way to use CLI without constantly referencing the Man pages and/or copy/paste text so much; also, becoming familiar with uses of the -, /, \, |, ~, and ! is a bit daunting also.
Perhaps one of your members is an amateur radio operator, as I believe there are uses in the hobby for Linux as well, such as digital-HF mode servers for PSK-31, Olivia, SSTV, APRS, Morse, etc., or for automatic voice logging servers to record my QSOs and mark the time, freq., mode and S-meter signal along with the station callsign and relayed signal (RST) report.
Anyway, I hope to find someone who is a bit familiar with these applications and their Linux supporting framework. I’d also like to find out any adult classes for basic Linux as well.
73′s for now,
de Jeff (KA3RXE)
