Lan Party

  • Get list of available native Linux games

    • Tribes2 :
    • NeverWinter Nights : ThierryCoutelier and SergeMarelli have one version.
    • There is a free 3D shooter (like UT/tribes etc) which works on linux and windows, called Legends [3], you might want to install that as well... (GeorgesToth)

  • Organize PCs (Ste Sophie, HP, Siemens, ...) (2 weeks in advance) (contacts?)

The LGL itself now has PCs which may be suitable. These are Siemens computers with Intel 82865G graphics chip (download drivers here). The cases are quite small, not sure how easy it will be to add an external Nvidia card, if need be.

  • Organize games (2 weeks in advance)

Demo

    • SergeMarelli : have recently registered to use WinEx, I still have to understand how to install and use it. Then I'll be able to provide Baldur's Gate (1&2) as well as Diablo II which ought to work with WinEx...
    • Am not quite sure what this list is about, but i got tribes2 native (linux) if you need it (GeorgesToth)
    • VincentBremaud: As last year, I can bring (a) computer(s) (with GNU/Linux(es) of course) and various games, mostly Windows ones working with winex (aka cedega)
    • [complete this list please]

    • Maybe some Rosport (Blue)
  • Contact Transfair for
    • Coffee

    • Do we prepare or buy some sandwiches ? (Responsibility)
    • Order Pizza in time to start at 14.00.

Everyone MAKE SURE YOU MARK YOUR ITEMS!

  • Spare monitors

  • Wi-Fi access point -> PierreFonck
  • Demo computers
  • "Dymo" labelling machine

For demo:

  • Astronomy programs demo

AlexLoes: I could show several programs, but only on my laptop. I will not bring on my PC as I have to bring on my music instruments. Haven't got a lot of time!

Tutorial

only basic ? what about install and more advanced courses ? (well think I can handle this on-the-fly ;), except for install there should be people ready to install ...)

AlexLoes: What about Jam and the Bluemoon playing on stage. As Pier told me, he has no material for doing the audio part. So I have engaged a friend who brings on material.

Does anybody know about the 'SACEM' (copyright on texts)? OK. done I ordered a document to register@SACEM.
