[Posted to man.unix.general and other news groups] ------ Forwarded Article <chkptp$idc$1(a)canopus.cc.umanitoba.ca> ------ From gedetil(a)cs.umanitoba.ca (Gilbert E. Detillieux) The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly meeting on Tuesday, September 14. The meeting topic for this month is as follows: Let's build a highly available web server! How do you put together a redundant fail-over linux cluster suitable for use with Apache and MySQL? How do you solve the problem of real time data replication when you have a database that is doing frequent updates? Why MySQLs built-in replication doesn't work! And, and a bonus, lets have it do some load balancing as well. After all, no sense having that second machine sitting there doing nothing, right? And all this for less than $3000.00. Come see and hear John Lange speak on this feat of derring-do! Tools used: Linux-HA, DRBD, openMosix, MySQL and Apache. The group holds its general meetings at 7:30 PM 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. ********************************************************************** Please note our new meeting location: The IBM offices, at 400 Ellice Ave. (between Edmonton and Kennedy). When you arrive, you will have to sign in at the reception desk, and then wait for someone to take you (in groups) to the meeting room. Please try to arrive by about 7:15 PM, so the meeting can start promptly at 7:30 PM. Don't be late, or you may not get in. Limited parking is available for free on the street, or in a lot across Ellice from IBM, for $1.00 for the evening. Indoor parking is also available nearby, at Portage Place, for $2.00 for the evening. ********************************************************************** For more information about MUUG, and its monthly meetings, check out their Web server: http://www.muug.mb.ca/ Also note that MUUG maintains two mailing lists, called "muug-announce" and "roundtable". If you're not already on these lists, we encourage you to subscribe now: http://www.muug.mb.ca/mailman/listinfo/ The "muug-announce" list is used for monthly meeting announcements (such as this one) as well as other important announcements of interest to MUUG members. The "rountable" list is meant to be a forum for follow-ups to topics discussed at the meetings, or for round-table-style discussion on other topics that come up between meetings. Of course, for this to be effective, we need to reach a certain critical mass. So, please subscribe, and stay involved! -- Gilbert E.

Low-latency patch for Fedora Core2
by millward 06 Sep '04

06 Sep '04

Is there a low-latency patch for the kernel of Fedora Core 2? I'd like to try some home recording with my used Audiofile sound card but I've heard that the 2.6 kernel is useless for sound-on-sound without a low-latency patch. Has this problem been solved in Core 2 or do I still need a patch if it exists?
