Those interested in Linux wireless networking might be interested in
going to the first talk on setting up a wireless sound system.  Might be
good!

Hi everyone, 

The next meeting of the Linux Users of Victoria will be held on 
Tuesday the 6th of August. Please note that due to an earlier
booking, the meeting will be 30 minutes later than usual.

This Month we have 

First Talk:  
"A Networked Loudspeaker" by Jan Newmarch 

Home networking is arriving slowly. This talk reports on 
a project to stream audio around the house using wireless 
networking. The audio stream is received by a loudspeaker 
running embedded Linux with a power amplifier 

Main Presentation: 
"A Cook's Tour of KDE 3" By Tim Norman 

The K Desktop Environment version 3.0 (aka KDE 3) is the latest major 
release of one of the largest Free Software projects in the world. KDE 
aims to provide an integrated, usable desktop environment for Unix 
systems, and runs on several platforms, including Linux, the BSDs and 
even Mac OS X. 

This talk will cover all the new features of KDE 3, as well as providing 
a guide to everything that makes KDE what it is. We take a 'hands on' 
look at KDE 3, from the user's point of view, rather than the 
programmer's. We will look at KDE programs such as Kicker, Konqueror, 
Koffice, KMail, Kate and Noatun, as well as the in-depth configuration 
system and funky cool features that are contained in KDE 3. 

And if you're really lucky, we might even get to look at Liquid, the 
coolest KDE theme ever. (jason - Yes , you're lucky) 

When: 
        Tuesday 6th August 
        7:00 pm - 7:30 pm  pre-meeting refreshments 
        7:30 pm - 9:30 pm  presentations 

        Please note that access from outside into the building is not a

Where: 
        Telstra Auditorium 
        level 1,  242 Exhibition St, Melbourne 
        on the corner of Lonsdale St.

All welcome.
