From announce at ntlug.org Thu Sep 17 09:20:39 2009 From: announce at ntlug.org (Low-traffic NTLUG announcement list) Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2009 09:20:39 -0500 Subject: [NTLUG:Announce] NTLUG Meeting Saturday Sept. 19 2009, Linux Console Applications Message-ID: <4AB245B7.5020607@acm.org> One things about a Linux distribution is how it can fit into so many different places and situations. Linux has a frame buffer driver that works with most graphics cards and can be used to actually handle graphical applications without using the X Window System. I'll demonstrate several programs that make life from the command line very livable... and in some cases, very desirable. I'll demonstrate web browsing (with graphics), video and music playing, CD ripping, email, instant messaging and more.
