Last Weeks Friday Night Lab

There was only a few of us there.  I'm assuming because folks were =20
enjoying the sunshine that has been thrown at us over the last week or =20
so.

We worked on a couple of different things:

The first was using WPA2 with wpa_supplicant.  I know Jim got close to =20
figuring it  out completely, but the distro he was using was saving =20
the parameters wrong in the wpa_supplicant.conf file.

We edited the file by hand and then ran it from the command line with =20
debugging turned on.  That helped us figure out what needed doing for =20
it to work.

Hopefully Jim will fill in the blanks.

The other thing we did is tried to install debian onto an old low =20
memory laptop that had a broken CDrom drive.  It's bad enough to try =20
install linux on older hardware, but not having a consistently working =20
CDrom drive really mucks things up.

I didn't end up going over the xorg stuff...and for now, I'll just do =20
it for the May 9th meeting.

If you have specific things you'd like covered, drop me a note so I =20
can make sure I get that into my presentation.

Currently the talk will include:

- xorg.conf format and options
