You can also use a web browser (I believe) -- clicking a link. If it helps, I would even go through a practice run with you to see how well it works for you.

But, it could give us a chance to socialize and discuss the new changes that have occurred in the Linux world in the past month plus. We can also screen share anything we want to demonstrate.

     The next meeting whether virtual or in real life is not up to me.

     I actually have no camera nor microphone so a virtual meeting in

which I participated would not seem to have me there at all.

     But if other folks are interested let them meet by all

means.  I am still trying to get my problem with the longer

messages resolved.  And not only do they not reach the main

list they do not reach the test list or private email addresses.

     Thanks for your offer and I hope that some folks will

take it up.
