Next Meeting 27th June

[Duncan Roe]

Hi everyone,

I've updated https://mlug-au.org/doku.php?id=start and cleared out the
attendance list.

I booked the GNH for 7 so if we have 4 or more takers then an in-person (F2F)
meeting can go ahead. If we have more, that's fine too.

Please add your name to the list on the web site if you are coming.

We have no talks yet. Does anyone have something they'd like to show the rest of
us?

I myself am rather bogged in an upgrade to Slackware 15.0. A fresh install to a
VM went fine.

Also Firefox on my desktop has stopped showing a map when on the PTV journey
planner. The guys at Mozilla were unable to reproduce and I'm having a hard time
tying down under what circumstances I get the misbehaviour.

If I come up with any answers by the time of the meeting I can share them.

Cheers ... Duncan.

Did you try to create a new profile within your Firefox?
about:profiles

Also, sometimes when I find things not working in Firefox, I turn off the "tracking protection" for the site.

Sadly, sometimes some sites work in Google Chrome (and perhaps any Chromium based browser), this is poor form by the site
coders IMHO. I know Firefox doesn't have anywhere near the love it should have, but at times Mozilla shoot themselves in
the foot with changes that annoy people and stop some things from working; in particular the older add-ons, but, like
anything, there are always pros and cons, so it isn't always so simple.

Cheers
A.

There are only 3 names on the list as of now (2022-06-25 19:47:53 +1000). I
would really like to see 4 at least (booked for 7 this month). If you intend to
come, could you please add your name before Sunday afternoon?

I've added a talk by muself on some stuff I discovered during my (ongoing)
laptop Slackware update. Also I have a bit of news to share about my Firefox
woes.

There will be a parallel virtuat meeting as usual at
https://meet.jit.si/mlug-au, but I hope to see a few of you in person on Monday.

Cheers ... Duncan.

Hi Everyone,

There were only 3 names on the list so I cancelled the GNH. Sorry to Pool &
Michael.

I'll update https://mlug-au.org/doku.php?id=start accordingly.

The virtual meeting at https://meet.jit.si/mlug-au will still go ahead.

Cheers ... Duncan.

OK, this is really annoying, because I didn't see this thread at all until I went looking for it in the groups interface.
