When is Linux meeting this month

[Gregory J. Neumann]

Wow!  We got some M748LMRT's.  Absolute DOGS under Win98!  Truly awful
shared video memory BIOS for Win98.  Maybe they're better under Linux.
After all, Linux (or just about ANY O/S!) handles memory better than
Win98.  
 
Father's Day looks good to me!  My daughter still rubs it in about
missing the last meeting!  My 10 year old son wants to come, but I have
to keep telling him that it's NOT an end to end QuakeFest! ;-)  I wonder
if he could stand the sitting for the tutorial.  It'd be good for him,
but I think he'd be too easily distracted, bored and fidgety.

Mandrake 8.2 (Bluebird) comes with kernel version 2.4.18-6mdk. I plan on
doing the install on a PCChips M748MRT motherboard with a 533mhz Celeron
cpu and 96MB ram. This is an all-in-one motherboard except for the NIC,
I put that in the one expansion slot. There are no other slots on this
mb so it's a choice of either doing the NIC or the TV Tuner. If there is
time, I suppose I could pop out the NIC and put in the TV Tuner card to
show the install on that, although we would need a cable or antenna
hookup of some sort to show how it works. I will do the install from
scrap but if we run out of time, I have dumped and restored the entire
config to a different hard drive that I could pop in and at least show
how it all works.

The  16th works for me. 

I'm really looking forward to the pesentation, especially since Peter
mentioned "all in 

one" Motherboards.  Maybe an upgrade to Mandrake 8.2 will solve most or
all of my little 

glitches. 



Does a newer release of a distro necessarily include a newer version of
the kernel ? 

My present one is 2.4.8 . What's in Mandrake 8.2 ?
