Tue, 16/11/2004 - 10:03am — Alaa

this is a complete mirror of EGLUG as it stands an hour ago but upgraded to 4.5, please test it and break it, but don't use it for actual content submission.

issues

  • backported locale module incompatible, delete all locale table before upgrade
  • contrib navigation module conflicts with menu system, delete its tables
  • taxonomy_image data lost (tis ok we only have one configured so far)
  • flexinode images lost (need to manually fix all reviews :-(

Finally they approved my graduation project

Thu, 04/11/2004 - 3:01pm — BooDy

finally after a long struggle with the guys from college they approved my graduation project. I'll be teaching linux to the project team (7 guys who were shoked to know that Linux doesn't have My computer). I guess some people really hate me now because i caused their projects to be rejected but what the heck i don't like them anyway. The graduation project will be building a distro but thats not enough i think so i'll have to do something more specific maybe some coding, after all i'll be re-studying C. Best thing is i WON THE FIGHT WITH THE POWER ! :)

We're still alive!

Mon, 11/10/2004 - 2:04am — phaeronix

while activity here, eglug.org, #eglug and #phaeronix was really low the past week, I assure you we are all still alive and well. On a side note, here's an update on the stuff in the upcoming version of the LiveCD: -Updates most notably OOO 1.1.3 and jre1.5 -Hardware detection script: error fixing, and huge speed improvement ( no more compiles ). -UI : no more xfce dependency, only ROX and gkrellm. This spared some memory. -less stuff extracted to RAM on startup. -Better way of ejecting the liveCD on shutdown. ( could still be improved though ). -As a result of the last two the LiveCD can now boot with just 64Mb of RAM available and still have 24Mb free after the desktop is up. ( confirmed in qemu ).
