First, I like DokuWiki (found through http://www.wikimatrix.org/) It is file based, so no database to maintain, could be copied on CD etc.  Also it works with LDAP authentication, ldap groups and rights per group assigned to pages.  Most of all it has been tweaked for documentation ... A commercial support is available if necessary.  Also, I'd like to suggest another GRLUG meeting at GRCC.  In addition to current issues we could again do some technical presentations.  I'd like to suggest Oracle 10g installation on RedHat 4.  I could walk the group through kernel adjustments, package requirements, etc.  Let me know.

Care to  set up something for the group? I will  contribute what I can, including solutions to  my problems that people in the group provide.  A simple statement of the problem, and the  solution arrived at.   i.e., a good idea made even better by getting  on with it. Google can then catch wind of it  eventually, and others outside the group can  use the information.    -Bob      On 5/16/06, Shawn McCuan <metiosarius at linspirenetwork.com> <metiosarius at linspirenetwork.com>wrote:    A wiki would be nice :)  David Pembrook wrote:    I've said it before and I'll say it again....

Since so many people here seem to use google as their first choice for solving problems, perhaps the solutions found here should then be posted somewhere too. In the spirit of give a little, don't just take.   -Bob  On 5/16/06, *Jordan Hudson* <jodanlime at gmail.com  <mailto:jodanlime at gmail.com > <jodanlime at gmail.com>> wrote:   yeah, linux and ati dont get along good with each other  sometimes, I would google that card and ubuntu together, see what  you can come up with there, I'm sure somebody has a similar   problem.
