Hi LUGers,
SF-LUG meets on third Monday of every month from 6 P.M. to 8 P.M.
and on first Sunday of every month from 11 A.M. to 1 P.M.
at the Cafe Enchante, 26th and Geary Boulevard.
These meetings are usually lightly attended with a high for the
year so far of 7 members. If you have a problem come along
and maybe we can help but if not we can usually find someone
who can.
New distros and upgrades at this meeting:
Rescatux 0.7.1-beta7 boots on 32 and 64 bit systems.
It is still CD sized so I put it on CDs (several copies).
Clonezilla Live 2.6.1-25 separate versions for 686, 686-pae, and amd64
machines.
SuperX_5.0(Lamarr) which features a KDE with restricted choices.
comes with KWrite, LibreOffice (older 6.x), Firefox. Menu uses only
the icon dashboard that shows a borderless window with application
icons. Boots from a Flash Drive.
Looks good for beginners whether Linux aware or not.
I wrote to Rick about such a distribution not too long ago but
it looks like the ideas I had are expressed here.
Parrot in Home and Full Security versions in KDE. Parrot has lots of
versions with various interfaces, suiting processors from x86, through
amd64 and ARM. I got the KDE amd64 versions.
Have both written to a Flash Drive and tested.
Have several other downloaded systems, Open Indiana,
Open Mandriva, which may be written to Flash Drives
for testing.
I hope to see some of us on Monday the 20th of May,
Bobbie Sellers
