Thursday March 4, 2021

Venue

Linux-Ottawa Jitsi Server

As this server is being built about an half an hour prior to the meeting to keep the operating cost down, there should be no connectivity until roughly 30 minutes prior to the meeting. Access codes follow a simple predictable pattern and you can find the pattern in the mailing list.

Meeting Agenda

When: Thursday, March 4, 2021
Time: 19:00
Where: jitsi video conference (details below)

Topics

Just a reminder that the first part of the meeting will be concentrating on those new to Linux as a way to get people started.

For those new to Linux, John has a talk titled: “Decisions when setting up a new system”

The second talk will be a demo from Scott on the Pi based KVM over IP mentioned during the last meeting and if there is sufficient interest, a future talk on building one, why you might want one and a host of expansion ideas.

And we have a third talk from Tug titled “Choirs of Covid: What if your thing is live collaborative music?”

Meeting Details

The meeting URL is now fixed URL, https://six.linux-ottawa.org and should be up for connection by 18:30 on meeting nights and will vanish shortly after the meeting has concluded. The codewords that you need will also be predictable so that you no longer need the email with them to join. Hopefully you are on the mailing list so you will know the pattern. If not, it is in the list archive and you just append it to the meeting URL. Since you will be joining as anonymous guests, you will not have a username or password. If it asks for a username and password, it has not been started yet. I will be attempting to have it running no later than 18:45. It should be online earlier, but I expect it to be online by then.

Rules/Procedures/Common-Sense

Video and audio will be disabled when you join. In order to make sure the experience is a reasonable one for all involved, the presenter will share their screen-window-whatever they are comfortable with and you will see it quite clearly. Rather than unmute, pressing your space bar is will unmute your microphone while pressed, so you can try that to ask questions. There is also the chat window, which no longer appears to obscure the rest of the session (maybe on small monitors?) Feel free to post questions and as opportunity presents itself and the presenter notices, they will get answered. After the presentation is completed, feel free to unmute and have a normal voice/video Q&A.
