Sorry about forgetting everyone's names but I thought I'd pick up on a
couple of things from the last meeting.<br>
<br>
Was it Chris (photocopier bloke) who I overheard talking to Richard
about the website and the URLs? I had a search for the website and
spent some time there. I didn't know anything about it. It'd have been
handy for the map for finding the venue, and useful for some static
stuff that might not last long on the list. Perhaps it'd be possible to
put the URL in the sig for the list emails? I have a few things to
swap/give away, (not all of them anything to do with Linux, but too
bulky to bother putting on ebay), and it'd probably be worthwhile
cross-posting in a forum on the website. Dunno, what do people think?<br>
<br>
The two blokes with the laptop at the end of the table. I know, you
told me your names several times and I've still forgotten, sorry,
that's why I keep asking people their names, so that there's a better
chance of remembering? Anyway, I challenged you to find a screensaver
in Gnome that did a straightforward photo slide-show, and bet that you
couldn't find one. You did find one but it did a lot of poncy swirly
stuff and elaborate transitions as it went from image to image, whereas
what I'm interested in is just a simple sliding gallery. I've been
using kscreensaver in kde because of this. However, it seems it <i>is</i>
possible. What was the screensaver you tried, was it glslideshow? Last
week I was thinking about it and decided to see if I could find what
you'd been running. I found glslideshow and, after some
counter-intuitive tweaks, discovered it is possible after-all to do a
image slide show. So perhaps I might switch desktops to gnome one day
after all.<br>
