Re: [LUG] meeting in chudleigh 3rd may

oh and the only other thought is if someone could bring along a phono to phono cable (i.e. red and white audio plugs) it would be appreciated as i am attempting to get a sound system hooked up to the TV for games, but there is an awful hum when going from headphone socket to phono, and when directly plugged into the ps3 it is incredibly loud.

Other than that, Pirates Of Silicon Valley or RevolutionOS.

That would be good, I could do with creating a new key (I lost my old one).

I'd love to have a look at the EeePC.  I'm trying to convince Gemini FM
to give one away in a prize draw.

Is the PS3 running Linux?  Something else I'd love to see.

If I can get it running, I may be able to bring my Wii along running Wii
