It's worth noting that if you're trying to get an image of a drive
that's failing, ddrescue
(http://www.gnu.org/software/ddrescue/ddrescue.html) handles things
much more robustly than vanilla dd.
Triangle Linux Users Group (TriLUG) Annual Spring Installfest
When:� May 19, 2012,� 10:00am - 5:00pm
Where: Splat Space - Durham's Hackerspace
���������� 331 W. Main St - Suite B02 (Basement)
���������� Durham, NC� 27701
���������� 919-704-HACK
URL: http://trilug.org/2012-04-19/installfest
RSVP: http://www.meetup.com/splatspace/events/60573932/
Now is your chance to install that favorite Linux or UNIX distro you
always wanted on your computer.� At Installfest we will have workshops
to help you install Linux right, and tune it properly for your
intended purpose, including advice from professional sys-admins and
long-time experienced Linux and UNIX users.
We will be meeting at Splat*Space in Durham, from 10:00am to 5:00pm.
Go here for directions to Splat*Space: http://splatspace.org/location/
No prior experience is required to attend TriLUG Installfest and you
don't need to own the latest hardware. There are plenty of members who
will be glad to work with you and allow you ask questions.� You don't
need to be a member of TriLUG or Splat*Space in order to attend, but
please do ask about the membership options while you're there.� It's a
great group of folks and there's a good chance that you'll share
interests with many of the other members.
The hardest questions about Linux will be answered:
* What distro?
* What disk partitioning should I use?
* What desktop interface should I use?
* What do I do about file management & backups?
* What about servers and daemons?
Bring your own computer or computers or other devices and join us to
install that perfect system you've always wanted.� We will have the
latest popular distros available, or you can bring your own iso's.
Besides the usual categories of installations such as general, game
playing, entertainment, development workstation, home or small
business server, this year we will also be installing netbook, pad and
small devices and single-board computers and embedded systems and
microcontrollers.
Yes we will also be installing UNIX and Android systems.
Some effort will be made to mentor some application installations,
like office apps, development IDE's, web servers and so on.
Join us for fun, frolic, and Linux.

I was wondering: Are we planning to conduct the voting before or after the movie?
Thanks,
Michael Marley
Typically we do them before elections.

Before the movie that is. If we could do the elections before we do the elections, we'd probably have a physics thesis in there somewhere.

Hello Internets,
The semester is almost over so that means it's time for movie night and elections. We will be watching Piled Higher and Deeper, a movie based on the PhD Comics
http://www.phdcomics.com/comics.php
. Elections will be held before the movie and we have some contested positions this semester so it should be interesting.
We're going to use club funds to provide pizza and I will be bringing cookies. Vote CarsonLynn for VP.
Come out and join us at 7pm tomorrow in Mann 301.
See you there,
Carson Holgate
NCSU LUG VP Fall 2012
I would just like to remind everyone that I am the only
vice-presidential candidate who didn't write lessthanthree.

Topic: OpenSource.com
Presenter: Ruth Suehle
When: Thursday, May 10, 7pm
Where: Red Hat HQ, NCSU Centennial Campus, 1801 Varsity Dr, Raleigh, NC
Webpage: http://trilug.org/2012-05-10/opensource-com
Sponsor: http://www.caktusgroup.com/about/
"Open source" isn't just about code anymore. It's a successful
business model for selling that software � Red Hat recently became the
first billion-dollar open source company. Then other businesses took
notice and adopted openness principles. Now we see openness in
education. In governments and laws. The principles of open source are
changing everything about our lives � principles that you use in
software development every day.
At opensource.com, we explore all of that. We examine what happens
when those principles � openness, transparency, collaboration, rapid
prototyping, community � are applied to the world. We�ve found
hundreds of stories of how openness has solved problems. Changed the
way our children learn. Increased governmental transparency. Created
collaboration in business. Helped save lives in times of crisis. "Open
source" now defines a culture � a culture that�s changing the world.
But to help spread openness, you have to be able to talk about it in a
way that keeps people from immediately thinking it's all about
software. I'll tell you how to use pop culture � from Iron Man to The
Hunger Games, World of Goo to Star Trek � to explain these principles
and how you can apply them beyond the code.
Ruth Suehle is a writer and editor in Brand Communications + Design at
Red Hat, Fedora contributor, and moderator of the opensource.com Life
channel. She's a maker at heart who is often behind a sewing machine,
rolling fondant, or looking for the next DIY project. You can find her
on Twitter and identi.ca as @suehle.
