Anybody want a great big server?
by Kendric Beachey 28 Sep '09

28 Sep '09

I have a big (and heavy) server in my basement that I'm not using. I think it currently has some ancient version of Gentoo on it but given this audience I'm guessing that will not be kept. The name of the game with this beast was redundancy...it's not too impressive by today's standards, but it should be able to keep ticking through quite a few invocations of Murphy's Law. Dual P3 Server Includes: - Intel SC5000 chassis (may be able to find hardware for rackmount...currently set up for desk side) - Supermicro P3TDE6 motherboard - Dual Pentium 3 850Mhz CPUs (runs stable @ 1.13GHz) - 512MB ECC Registered PC133 RAM (256MB stick x 2) - U160 capable hot-swap drive bay (holds up to 5 1inch drives) - Qty. 5 - 18GB 10k RPM Ultra2 drives - SCSI CD-ROM - SCSI CD-R drive - ATI RAGE XL video card - Integrated 10/100 Intel NIC - Integrated U160 dual channel Adaptec SCSI adapter - 2 64-bit/66MHz PCI slots - 4 64-bit/33MHz PCI slots - Redundant 350W power supply Given the age, the weight, and the probable distance to drive to pick it up, I'm saying it's free to a good home. (Or a bad home...it's a computer; it won't care.) I live in south Olathe, a couple miles from Garmin...that could be a convenient transfer point (especially if we host another KULUA meeting).

Missing Robot
by Jestin Stoffel 25 Sep '09

25 Sep '09

A prominent member of Kansas City's robot community had his robot stolen out of his car recently. Here's a clip of the robot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zgLRX0JeTRA If anyone has any information about the whereabouts of this robot, please email me directly. The robot has plenty of customizations on it, so it will be easy to positively identify if found. Thanks for help. --Jestin

Installing Linux on Acer One
by Chris Bier 23 Sep '09

23 Sep '09

I was able to install Ubuntu on the Acer One after repartitioning, reformatting, and reinstalling the Ubuntu Live CD on the flash drive. I think I must have screwed up the MBR with syslinux. Works perfectly now. Excellent netbook.

Possibly OT -DragonCon Theft information..
by Oren Beck 18 Sep '09

18 Sep '09

Ok- This is slightly OT but worth considering! http://brute-force.livejournal.com/127377.html Well- The Live Journal entry of the Object's Maker tells the tale... Pass this around to the other LUG and related groups as many of us are fans of Steampunk- making us likely to see or hear the thief's bragging/showing/trying to sell the item .. Let's show some solidarity ok? -- Oren Beck 816.729.3645

MythTV questions
by Kelsay, Brian - Kansas City, MO 17 Sep '09

17 Sep '09

I finally got my network run over to the MythTV box a couple days ago. I ran updates on the PC and added a couple myth plug-ins that I did not get a chance to choose at install. I know this is weird, but I don't have a TV capture card in this PC. I have digital satellite and like digital cable, the tuner in the cards are not capable of getting all the channels and require a descrambler box. I don't want to mess with an IR blaster and training the family how to use the device. What I do want to do is start getting torrents of TV episodes to the box. Is there anything in MythTV to download torrents? I saw something about RSS feeds, but haven't a clue about getting that going. I think I loaded a myth plugin for a feed reader. How do I find the feeds or what is the best way to go about finding episodes of a couple shows like Heroes, Mentalist, Dexter, Robot Chicken, etc. including past seasons and getting them into the MythTV database/interface? I'm not sure that a torrent program loaded, so I'll have to verify that or get one. I've downloaded torrents before, but the key is to get them into MythTV to make it easier for everyone else. The other thing is that I loaded a plugin for using game emulators within MythTV, called MythGame. Do I have to load the emulators separately via the apt-get process? Any idea how to import the game ROMs. Someone gave me a couple burned CDs full of game ROMs a few years ago and as soon as I find them, I like to get those classic games running. Brian Kelsay
