=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
Announcement of RaWrapper v0.1
RaWrapper is a simple program which allows to control X11-based audio stream
players, like RealNetwork's RealPlayer, from the command line, without the
necessity of having a regular X server running.

Hello all,
This is to announce the formation of a Linux Users Group for Kingston,
Ontario, Canada and the surrounding area. If anyone out there is
interested in joining our band of merry men, please contact me by either
emailing me directly or by responding to this post.
For the foreseeable future the KLUG will continue to use the
kingston.os.linux newsgroup and email for communications. Please monitor
that newsgroup for more information. At some point in the future, when
membership increases, a mailing list may be set up to simplify
communications.

Subject: lm_sensors 2.1.0 - Hardware health sensor support
Date: Thu, 7 Jan 1999 01:46:42 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
This is an announcement of lm_sensors version 2.1.0. Note that new versions
are released very often, usually at least once a week. By the time you read
this, a new version may already be available at http://www.netroedge.com/~lm78.
lm_sensors is a collection of Linux kernel modules for 2.0 and 2.1 (and the
upcoming 2.2) kernels. It provides access to the hardware monitoring devices
which are available on almost all newer (read: less than a year old)
mainboards. These sensors report the currently measured voltage levels,
temperatures and fan rotation speeds, as well as some less important things.
The modules currently support the LM78, LM78-J, LM79, LM80, W83781D and
GL518SM chips. These chips can be accessed both through the ISA bus and
through the System Management Bus, commonly called SMBus. More chips will
be supported in the near future.
SMBus is a protocol that runs over the I2C (pronounce: I square C) bus.
lm_sensors version 2 is built upon Simon Vogl's I2C kernel modules, which
means that it supports any bus type that is supported by that package.
This includes the VIA chipset southbridge, a chipset used on many non-Intel
mainboards. There is also a native (non-I2C) driver for the Intel PIIX4(E)
in the lm_sensors package.
Sensor readings are exported to user-space through the /proc and sysctl
interfaces. As these tend to be a bit hard for humans to read (though
they are ideal for programs), a sample program is included which pretty
prints all sensor data.
Because different mainboard can use the same sensor chip in different
ways, version 2 of lm_sensors implements a configuration file which can
be used to describe this. This file will be automatically read by all
applications which are linked to the included library. An example
program illustrates how this can be done.
If you have used version 1.x.y in the past, you will see that a lot has
changed since then. We still call the current 2.1.0 version beta, but
it seems at least as stable as the 1.x.y versions.
Below you can find the LSM entry. Please contact the developers (Frodo
Looijaard and Philip Edelbrock) through the developers mailing list
at lm78@stimpy.netroedge.com if you have questions, suggestions, problems
or patches. Or even if you just want to tell us it worked for you!
Happy new year,
Frodo

Title: lm_sensors
Version: 2.1.0
Entered-date: 29DEC98
Description: Hardware health monitoring package for Linux. It consists of
kernel modules to access sensor chips and SMBus hardware,
of a library to allow applications to read this data more
easily, and of an example program to pretty print this data.
LM78, LM79, LM80, W83781D and GL518SM sensor chips are
supported, among others. PIIX4 and VIA chipset SMBus
implementations are supported, as well as many I2C busses.
Version 2 is a complete non-compatible modular rewrite of this
package, with full I2C and SMBus support.
Keywords: kernel module SMBus sensors LM78 health

Please join us for the Colorado Linux User's and Enthusiast's (CLUE)
January meeting. The meeting is at 7:00 pm on Tuesday, January 12, 1999
at the Batky-Howell's Education Center (BHEC). BHEC is located 10333
East Dry Creek Road in the CNA office building in Englewood, Colorado.
For directions, please visit our web site at www.clue.denver.co.us.

Subject: SBaGen - BinAural Brain Wave Experimenter's Lab
Date: Thu, 7 Jan 1999 02:12:54 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
** SBaGen - BinAural Brain Wave Experimenter's Lab **
Version 1.0.1 of "SBaGen - Sequenced BinAural Generator" has been
released for Linux (and other similar systems).
What is it ?
============
This is a utility, released under the GPL, that generates pink noise
and binaural tones (to /dev/dsp) in real-time according to a 24-hour
programmed sequence read from a file. It can also be used to play a
sequence on demand, rather than according to the clock. It is ideal
for anyone who wishes to experiment with binaural beats for them-
selves, without using the commercially available tapes or courses.
The theory behind binaural beats is that by applying slightly
different frequency sine waves to each ear, a beating affect is
created in the brain itself, due to the brain's internal wiring.
If, in the presence of these tones, you relax and let your mind go,
your mind will naturally synchronize with the beat frequency. In this
way it is possible to tune the frequency of your brain waves to
particular frequencies that you have selected, working with the four
bands: Delta, Theta, Alpha and Beta.
I am using the utility to experiment with my own brain waves, to
understand better how I've been using my brain all these years, and
discover more of my own potential. More advanced uses of binaural
beats that I've heard about include using it to support lucid
dreaming, out-of-body stuff, and things even stranger than that.
USE AND EXPERIMENT AT YOUR OWN RISK !

Subject: COMMERCIAL: Accelerated-X for Linux on Alpha Processors now available.

Reply-To: jdc@xig.com
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
The Accelerated-X Server version 4.1.2 is now available for Linux on
DEC/Compaq Alpha processors. It is available via resellers or directly
from Xi Graphics. The supported distribution is Red Hat 5.2 for Alpha
processors.
Both the 21064 and 21164 processors are supported but Xi Graphics
strongly recommends the 21164 for best speed with Accelerated-X. A
minimum of 32MB system memory is recommended with best speeds developed
on a system with 64MB system memory or more. Benchmark test results
using the Xmark benchmark indicate that Accelerated-X on an Alpha
processor is relatively faster than other X Servers available for the
Alpha, just as with the Intel processor version. For example, in 24bpp
on a Matrox Millennium II PCI with a 366MHz Alpha processor,
Accelerated-X achieves 19 Xmarks while MetroX achieves 14 Xmarks. On a
3Dlabs Permedia 2 board, Accelerated-X achieves 12 Xmarks, MetroX
achieves 9 Xmarks and XFree86 3.3.3 achieves 6 Xmarks. Other benchmark

Subject: CONFERENCE: Linux Expo '99 Business Track Speaker Opportunities
Date: Thu, 7 Jan 1999 02:16:21 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
The Business Track will provide an overview of current and future Linux
usage trends within the government, commercial and corporate
environments.
WHO? Speakers with interesting Linux Business related topics willing
to share their knowledge for ONE hour at the 5th Annual Linux Expo.
WHAT? A ONE page abstract describing your fascinating topic.
WHEN? The deadline to turn in your abstract is Friday, February 26th
1999- that's plenty of time to get it together, however, space is
limited (it may fill up before then) and we don't want to miss any
monumental topics. We will notify you by March 12th 1998, if your
topic has been selected.
WHERE? Please send your abstracts to the Linux Expo Team:
stacy@linuxexpo.org or fax to
919-933-9233.
WHY? Because the widespread use of Linux is creating business
opportunites that are unparalleled in the technology industry.
*Note: Linux Expo is not looking for business speakers to do product
endorsements or product demos.
