The Washington State Linux Users Group (LUG) exists to promote the visibility and use of Linux and other Free and Open Source software. We give away free Linux CDs and Open Source software CDs for other operating systems, help install Linux, and run mailing lists providing free Linux support. It can be a big jump to break away from proprietary software, so we're here to help.

Are you a massive nerd? (Hint: if you're reading this, you are.)

Then you need to submit a nerd application and get yourself up on the block, posthaste!

Don't care what we have to say, and just want to apply? Then click here to start your application now!

Before you lose interest: by applying for Nerdy and the Greek there is a very good chance that you will get free clothes, a free expensive hair-cut, free awesome new friends, free fashion advice, a dream date and a bunch of other FREE stuff! Free!

Do we have your attention now? Okay, good.

Ladies and gentlemen, you're looking at a golden opportunity, for fun, new friends, new stuff, and the experience of a lifetime! Okay, maybe not a lifetime, since that would be kind of sad, but certainly the experience of a few months or so!

It's an awesome and unique time, and you'll walk away from it a new person -- with a snazzy haircut, and new clothes that aren't polos from Wal-Mart or snarky t-shirts from Jinx.

And don't forget that date with your highest bidder Who knows, maybe you'll end up with that tall, dark and sexy up in the front row that also loves Dungeons and dragons; maybe you'll raise a thousand dollars for charity, or how about a date with the kid of a bona fide rock star?

(If you were wondering: yeah, those all really happened.)

Samba makes me want to murder my server

I have been trying to get my Windows 7 box to connect to a Samba share on my server running CentOS. I have been through all sorts of setup guides and such and I have tried everything. Whenever I attempt to connect I get a "Permission Denied" error and the following shows up in the Samba log:

[2010/02/08 11:34:17, 1] smbd/notify_inotify.c:inotify_watch(412)
inotify_add_watch returned Permission denied

Anyone have any ideas what might be preventing me from connecting?

(I am running the latest version of Samba, CentOS 5.4)

DB-API retardedness, or how to return dictionaries from a database query with python

Do you, like me, pull out your hair and get the almost irresistible urge to murder small cute things when forced to use Python's DB-API? Despite being under development for many years it seems to be half-baked at best.

One such idiocy would be the utter lack of dictionary support, the ability that pretty much every other database abstraction layer since, well...forever, has had to allow you to address the columns by name. E.g., print row['firstName'].
