Hi all,
Timely reminder here of the first Berkeley Linux User Group meetup of
the month.
Both the virtual and the in-person physical meetups start at 11:00am
PDT this Sunday, July 13th and go to 2:00pm or however late people want to participate.
Please see the currently available meetup schedule at https://berkeleylug.com/meetings graciously provided by Michael P for further BerkeleyLUG meetup details.

Info of _BerkeleyLUG's_ virtual meetup thru Jit.si Meet ...

Dial-in: +1.512.647.1431 PIN: 1036 1972 20#

The in-person physical meetup will be at SoDoI on its Summertime schedule; 10am to 4:00pm as posted near its entrance.
SoDoI Coffee Tasting House
2438 Durant Ave.
Berkeley, CA 94704-1611
1-510-990-6487
+SoDoI is located slightly West of Telegraph Ave in the parallel corridor of several stores between Durant and Channing, under parking structure
+ SoDoI Coffee Tasting House webpage is at https://sodoicoffee.com/company/tasting-house/ and Michael's location-directions and parking info are at the Meetings webpage https://berkeleylug.com/meetings .
+ An OpenStreetMap.org approximation for locating SoDoI Coffee Tasting House is at https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/41746370 -- although likely best to instead refer to Michael's written directions at the Meetings webpage https://berkeleylug.com/meetings .
+ Yelp writeup is at https://www.yelp.com/biz/sodoi-coffee-tasting-house-berkeley-2

Am planning to bring along to the live, in-person meetup a mini-PC as well as a monitor and necessary peripherals to operate the system.
If anyone is interested near the end of live meetup, would be giving away the monitor together with its std power cable (will have to retain the VGA video cable for myself). It's a used Samsung SyncMaster 172N-Black 17in monitor; a description and review at https://www.cnet.com/reviews/samsung-syncmaster-173-review/

Also, if anyone is better able to address Alan D's previous 'Request for advice/direction' posting, please feel free to do so or pass along to those best able to do so :-)

In any case, hope to see some of you at SoDoI this Sunday!

Turns out that the SyncMaster 172N-Black monitor was penetrated by something that gave it a too-deep-to-fix gash on its screen :-[ , so will be bringing along a used ViewSonic VX1962wm 19in monitor instead.
FWIW, should arrive at SoDoI before 11:30am at this point.
