can lend a computer in ABQ - loan for linux class this weekend
by Mark Galassi 24 Aug '22

24 Aug '22

Dear ABQ and Santa Fe folk, Last time I asked y'all really delivered and allowed an Albuquerque kid to take my workshop. I'm teaching it again this weekend, online with Jitsi, and once again have a student who needs a laptop to use for the weekend. The first thing we do is wipe an old laptop and install a GNU/Linux distribution. Then we program in Python for the weekend. One of my students lives in ABQ (he says "close to the Taylor Ranch area" in ABQ) and does not have a laptop they can wipe, and I just found out now - too late to get someone to bring one down there. Does one of you have an old laptop (just needs 4gig of RAM) that you can let someone use for the weekend? Note that they will wipe the disk. They could come to your area to pick it up, if it's not too diametrically opposite. If so, could you please email me at mark(a)galassi.org or call me at 505-629-0759? Thank you! PS: the course is described at https://sites.google.com/view/serious-programming/

UNM VPN restrictions.
by Wesley Robbins 24 Aug '22

24 Aug '22

Does anyone know if UNM has restrictions to block VPN? Moved my son onto campus and he is not able to stay connected to our VPN system. Wondering if I will need to move the port or something else.

Trouble suspending laptop
by LeRoy Diener 21 Aug '22

21 Aug '22

Hi NMGLUG folks, I've been having trouble for a while with suspending my laptop. I click on Suspend, and it works sometimes. But, often, the next morning, I discover that it was not suspended, battery low or even lost power. Often, there's a message Authentication is required to suspend the system. Recently, I saw a new message: Power Manager GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied: Permission denied I searched for this and found: https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2014/10/msg00493.html https://www.freedesktop.org/software/gstreamer-sdk/data/docs/latest/gio/gio… https://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-java/api/org/freedesktop/DBus.Error.A… Any ideas? I'm running Lenovo X260 Debian 11 LXDE laptop with external monitor Thanks in advance, LeRoy -- There is something glorious birthing within all of us. I am the Love of God, no matter what.BSA LeRoy Diener 213-LEROYIZ 213-537-6949 https://leroydiener.com

Trunas scale exp?
by Wesley Robbins 19 Aug '22

19 Aug '22

Does anyone know the best hardware or software setup for TruNAS? I setup trunas a few months ago, and really like it. minus really poor performance. Which might be my hardware. The internet has just confused me more. Searching and reading speeds of Sata, SSD, and pcie is not straight. . . I am not sure where to even look to make changes for the better. Right now I have a AMD phenom II 6x with 16gig and 1 gig Ethernet. With seven Sata drives 2 of which are hot spares. My thoughts now. Are as follows. Pcie Sata card? Better nic? More ram? Bad settings? Any help would be wonderful.

Meeting?
by Ted Pomeroy 18 Aug '22

18 Aug '22

NMGLUGers, I will try to make the virtual meeting tonight, as posted on our website, https://nmglug.org/ I have also written a new post, but it contains no new information, just current thoughts on basic OS installation for others. I get along well with Debian, and have no complaints or issues at home at this time. I keep my work simple, so the latest discussion of hardware and software for NAS was not something I could comment on. I hope some of us have an issue or idea that might spark a discussion or sharing of ideas tonight. Thank you, Ted P.

Really annoying beeps
by Tom Ashcraft 13 Jun '22

13 Jun '22

I've got a nice little Acer netbook (maybe twelve years old?) that I use mainly for car camping and when I want to use a computer at the library. The problem is that *sometimes* when I use the 'action button' icon from either the 'main menu' or the 'panel' to suspend, shutdown, etc.; or, if I have to plugin or unplug the external charger/power supply for whatever reason, it emits an ear-splitting beep that makes anyone nearby jump right out of their skin and develop an instant case of PTSD. Does anyone know how I can disable this? _,met$$$$$gg. toma@11debXfceAO722 ,g$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$P. ------------------- ,g$$P" """Y$$.". OS: Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye) x86_64 ,$$P' `$$$.

Probably a simple answer to spam
by Brian O'Keefe 02 Jun '22

02 Jun '22

Hi all, This is more of a help call and is certainly not specific to GnuLinux but I know many of you are brainiacs and probably have a simple answer. I use Thunderbird, happily. However I've been getting more and more spam emails sent to me from my address. I can block these but I'm concerned there's more to this than meets the eye. Have I been hacked? I hope you all are surviving the fires and other catastrophes that are being visited upon us. Thanks --

Mtg. Tonight 5:30 pm, MDT
by Ted Pomeroy 26 May '22

26 May '22

NMGLUGers, We are scheduled to meet tonight, 5:30p, MDT at the video link https://meet.jit.si/nmglug as we are still not set on an in person meeting place. Art B. has mentioned LaTeX for handling data sets and mathematics, etc. So maybe we will have time for that. I have some anecdotes on hardware (an HP All in One) and fresh installation vs. upgrade. My upgrade from Xubuntu 21.10 to 22.04 by my own route was not successful. I am now in a trial of LinuxMint 20.3. Join us and let us know what you are doing. Thank you, Ted P.
