Code of Conduct We want a productive happy community that can welcome new ideas, improve every process every year, and foster collaboration between individuals with differing needs, interests and skills. We gain strength from diversity, and actively seek participation from those who enhance it. This code of conduct exists to ensure that diverse groups collaborate to mutual advantage and enjoyment. We will challenge prejudice that could jeopardise the participation of any person in the community. The Code of Conduct governs how we behave in public or in private whenever the Linux community will be judged by our actions. We expect it to be honoured by everyone who represents the community officially or informally, claims affiliation or participates directly. It applies to activities online or offline. We invite anybody to participate. Our community is open.

Hmmmmmmmmmm - - - - dunno how you're able to do this - - - - this go forward to back in time but I'd bet if you can that this would be quite readily salable! Please advise as to actual meeting time. Is it possible to 'attend' meeting after the fact? Regards
The actual meeting will be at 7:30 PM on 2021 August 10. I think that the rest of the message is correct. We are really lucky getting Alyssa Rosenzweig to talk. She's doing important and tricky work providing open drivers for pervasive hardware. Reverse engineering hardware as complex as a GPU is astonishingly difficult. The Linux graphics stack is enormous and I don't understand it at all well. I really look forward to Alyssa's talk: it should fill in one tile of the mosaic. I hope to ask Alyssa if she knows a Royal Road to understanding the stack. | From: o1bigtenor via talk <talk@gtalug.org> | To: GTALUG Talk <talk@gtalug.org> | Cc: o1bigtenor <o1bigtenor@gmail.com> | Date: Tue, 10 Aug 2021 05:55:20 -0500 | Subject: Re: [GTALUG] [GTALUG-Announce] Meeting Tomorrow | | On Mon, Aug 9, 2021 at 9:03 PM hi--- via talk <talk@gtalug.org> wrote: | | > https://gtalug.org/meeting/2021-08/ | > | > The Linux 3D graphics stack with Alyssa Rosenzweig | > | > GPUs and spinning cubes - what could go wrong?

Thought that timing was likely but did find the previously listed possibility as 'interesting'.

Having long term issues in trying to run a multi-gpu system and lately adding a 4k hdmi monitor monitor into a now 5 monitor display sub-system I also have more than a question or two that I would love some answers for. Likely won't be asking any questions as I'm finding that most of the Linux community doesn't use multi-gpu setups unless its for computing horse power or electronic currency mining which needs are quite different than for a very heavy screen real estate system (better not to frustrate other attendees!). Thanks for confirming the scheduling. Regards

Please tell me there is a recording. I forgot about it and this sounded really interesting. -- Len Sorensen
| From: Lennart Sorensen via talk <talk@gtalug.org> | Please tell me there is a recording. I forgot about it and this sounded | really interesting. Alan made a Zoom recording. I would guess that it will be made public. The QA session was not recorded. I found it very interesting, but then I would since I asked too many of the questions.

I just forgot it was Tuesday. :) -- Len Sorensen
I just thought I’d point out that the meeting page gets screwy if you look at it with a window wider than about 80% of a 2560 screen (the left navigation bar slides over the content block). Same on Firefox, Chrome, and Safari. ../Dave On Aug 9, 2021, 10:03 PM -0400, hi--- via talk <talk@gtalug.org>, wrote:

Dave's assessment perhaps doesn't need a +1, but since I do websites for a living, I was curious. And yes, the TLUG meeting page goes quite wonky on wide screens with bad overlap between the two columns. Ah - they're not columns: I've never used the <aside> tag, but it seems to be the issue here? Works great at narrow widths, breaks down with extra wide ones. -- Giles https://www.gilesorr.com/ gilesorr@gmail.com
