Linux gaming: James and Bruce will present some Games that run on Linux, either natively or under Windows compatibility wrappers like Wine.
Hi all,
I did the change to 7.10 my wireless works straight
away for only the second time ever. Glxgears is a bit sad at
132fps but I only have a ati mobility radeon 9000 so I guess
there is not much hope for anything better. Unless someone
knows of a tune up script to get a better result *hopes...
Regards John

The Secure Shell (SSH) network protocol makes it easy to connect
computers that are running Linux, share files, and remotely run
applications. Along with an X server, it can make sharing a single
computer simple on a home network.
In my home, my wife and I need to share a desktop computer -- often at
the same time. The computer runs Slackware Linux, and we have
individual user accounts, Thunderbird email profiles, Firefox
bookmarks, and other documents. Linux gives us the ability to share
the computer by using multiple X Window sessions, each on its own
virtual terminal. But the computer has only one monitor and one
keyboard, which limits us to one user at a time.

PulseAudio is a cross-platform, open source sound server that supports
advanced software mixing capabilities and network transparency.
PulseAudio is designed to be a drop-in replacement for the Esound
daemon and uses a pluggable Esound module for backwards compatibility.
PulseAudio provides the infrastructure needed to bring a
next-generation audio experience to the Linux desktop. PulseAudio will
make it possible to independently control the volume of individual
applications, support moving audio streams between devices on the fly,
output audio on multiple devices simultaneously, and provide
compatibility with GNOME's fast user switching functionality.
