[LUGSB] first meeting of the semester

[Mark]

We won't have a projector for the first meeting.  To be honest, I 
haven't even been in the room yet.  I'm going to go and check it out 
tomorrow (monday).  I don't think it's going to be big enough to 
necessitate a projector.  I'll be bringing my monitor down on wednesday 
to show the demo on playing DVDs.  Sarang, if you want to show some cool 
things under KDE, maybe we could do it during the next meeting so that 
we don't have one jam-packed meeting and another one with nothing going 
on.  I'll gladly bring my monitor down if that helps.  For the next 
meeting, besides demo-ing DVD playing w/ mandrake, I'm going to be 
showing (off) the version of gnome I'm running in debian.  I'm using 
GARNOME which is an easier way of installing development versions of 
GNOME.  I'm currently running GNOME v2.2rc1.  I also have a cvs version 
of gaim running which has a bunch of neat features that everyone will 
love to see.
