Wed 2022-04-06 @ downtown library
by Billy Croan 06 Apr '22

06 Apr '22

I got our old corner room, 312, at the downtown KC public library reserved for this Wednesday the 6th. I can show off xpra and some 3d printing/design stuff I've done lately. I can't go to breakfast afterwards like before, but should be at the library by 7 at the latest, and hope to see some of you there for the first time since covid.

Xpra: GNU Screen for GUIs
by Billy Croan 15 Mar '22

15 Mar '22

Anyone here use xpra and wouldn't mind showing it off at the library? I've found a couple gui programs that I want to keep running all the time, and I don't want to have a "server" running at home, nor keep my laptop on 24x7. So I want to run them on a remote server, and simply peek in on them when I need to use them. They need to continue executing when I'm not looking though. And I also don't want to have a Window locked in another window like rdp or vnc would do. I want full desktop integration. FreeNX was a nightmare last time I went down that rabbit hole, and this time I found xpra and it looks like it might do the trick!

Web Site Updates

Ok, specified updates made, sorry "tomorrow" got stretched quite a bit. Any more corrections will be made when I get to it, which is obviously not right away. Walt, AFIK the site's on shared NetStandard hosting. Our own hardware died several years ago. (It's still in my basement if anybody's interested in it.) -- Jonathan

Re: KCLUG Digest, Vol 125, Issue 1

I'm still around. But, my laptop took a dump. Been so busy that I haven't had time to try to figure out what happened and/or if it can be fixed. Some day when things get back down to a steady roar, I might get time to do that. But, for now, nothing like that is heading in that direction. I have been thinking about the kclug here lately, though. One never knows exactly which way the wind will blow.

I've attended one meeting in what must have been almost thirty years now. I did show up at a trade show we did once. I was always content to participate via the mailing list, but a few years back we had a troll problem, and those who were still active moved over to IRC. Who knows though, nobody ever cleaned up the distribution list, and people who haven't changed addresses will still get this. -- Jonathan ------------------------------ Message: 5 Date: Thu, 25 Nov 2021 19:04:59 -0600 From: "Christofer C.
