LUG Radio Live
« on: 2 April 2005, 17:56 »
I'm not sure how many of you listen to LUG Radio, possibly the best Linux/Comedy Radio Station :)

Well, they're hosting a Linux Conference with a difference -
LUG Radio Live will be a non-commercial, fun, 'for the people, by the people' event.

Speakers include Ian Bell, the co-write of Elite.

There will be all the usual you'd expect from a Linux Convention, plus a Live recording of LUG Radio, all-day bar, and a Multplayer Gaming LAN.

LUG Radio Live costs only

I just listened to S2 E12 and there was a good discussion about different UI's (Gnome, KDE, etc.) and their problems with standards.

I do believe that both should have one daemon for the clipboard, so there would be no problems anymore with copying between a GTK app and a K app.

I downloaded a few episodes to my iPod.  I only got halfway through one, but it seems pretty good.  At least it isn't totally serious...the British have goofy humor. ;)

Yes, it's the kind of humor that I use daily, I'm beginning to like this :p

Yeah it's a good show, as it isn't taken seriously :)

Regarding the clipboard, someone pointed me to this site, for a Gnome clipboard.
Works fabulously.

I'm sure it works fabulously, but that's not really my point.
I was thinking more about KDE and Gnome making XClipboard a standard, so there won't be a problem between the different GUI's.

Actually, Linux needs more standards, and the individual project groups just have to communicate more with each other, instead of working around each other.
