Computer Repair LED

 

The glug’s original kiosk machine for the Baking Company, “the breadbox” has been out of commision for quite a while now.

But the replacement machine, is still a popular attraction and it’s not so cool when it consistently crashes.

There’s suspicion that the problem is an overheating GPU on the motherboard, so during this meeting we’ll be cleaning it up a bit, and trying to manage any cooling issues, maybe with a new fan or two, and probably installing a seperate video card.

So bring a screwdriver and some canned air (or just eat some legumes), and come be part of the fun!

Thursday the 1st of March at SFBC

 

This news section is absolutely riveting. To add to the excitement, I would like to announce: this site is now all up-to-date and I am in process of updating the design.. yay.

 

At the last meeting, Mars pointed out that nmglug had no ssl for login and registrations.. oops. Its setup now.. Its self signed so ignore the warnings.. Whats important is that its encrypted. I set define('FORCE_SSL_ADMIN', 'true'); in wp-config.php so its enforced for all login and registration pages.

 

 

I had plans to build a widget to track our next meeting. Then I realized I don’t have a lot of time and it would require work… Also, why re-invent the wheel when someone else has already done the work. Events Manager is extrememly full featured. It even has RSS feeds! Hope to see you at the next meeting..

 

Its official, a new site for nmglug.org, complete with new hosting (dreamhost virtual private server, so we have root). Of course, its not all ready. The theme needs work, the site needs content. What has been done? The mail list archives have been imported to the new mailman (some very recent emails are lost:-(). A framework is in place for people to spring into action, register and make this site the next slashdot. woot
