The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly meeting on Tuesday, April 14. The meeting topic for this month is as follows:
Arch Linux
Paul Sierks will be presenting an overview of the Arch Linux operating system. From installing the base system and desktop environment, to updating and managing it. We'll cover some of the advantages in this distribution. Arch focuses on simplicity, minimalism, and stability. Users can create their own ideal environment, installing only what is needed or wanted. A rolling release model, Arch strives to be bleeding edge, providing the latest stable software. Paul will be performing a live demonstration of the Arch install process.
This month's RTFM segment will be ionice(1), by Adam Thompson. ionice gets or sets the scheduling class and priority for a program.
The group holds its general meetings at 7:30pm on the second Tuesday of every month from September to June. (There are no meetings in July and August.) Meetings are open to the general public; you don't have to be a MUUG member to attend.
