Subject: Linux: noteedit-1.10.4: LilyPond export
Date: Sat, 24 Mar 2001 23:53:32 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
Version 1-10.4 of the KDE/Qt based note editor "noteedit" now has
a LilyPond export feature:
http://rnvs.informatik.tu-chemnitz.de/~jan/noteedit/noteedit.html
I tried to import some MIDI files from classical midi archive
(http://prs.net/midi.html) and exported the score to LilyPond:
First Rimsky-Korsakov's Flight of the Bumblebee (15 staffs,
114 measures): At first sight it looks good.
Then (as a crash test) 1st movement of Beethoven's 5th symphonie
(15 staffs, 620 measures): It works till measure 170.
After that something is wrong.
Don't know whether this is a noteedit or a LilyPond
problem.(?)
It is relatively easy to post-edit the LilyPond format.
So the user has the possibility to perform some changes
and apply a costumized score and paper layout.

Subject: nc100em 1.2 - Amstrad NC100/NC200 emulator
Date: Sat, 24 Mar 2001 23:53:26 GMT
Reply-To: russell.marks@ntlworld.com
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
nc100em is an Amstrad NC100/NC200 emulator. There are four versions:
gnc100em - (for X) a GTK+-based version
snc100em - an svgalib version
tnc100em - a tty-based version
xnc100em - (for X) an Xlib-based version (NC100 only)
The emulators can run both the ROM software and ZCN, my free CP/M-like
OS for the NC100. *Neither ROM is included*, so if you want to use the
ROM stuff you'll have to transfer it yourself (nc100em comes with a
`romdump' program you can transfer the NC100 ROM with). A public
domain ROM is supplied which is good enough to run ZCN.
You can download it from here:
ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/emulators/nc100em-1.2.tar.gz
There's also a web page here:
http://rus.members.beeb.net/nc100em.html
1.2 includes NC200 support, and an important bugfix for the GTK+
version.
* Changes in nc100em 1.2
NC200 support, which you can enable using the `-2' option. It's still
a bit experimental, but I think what's there is fully working. It
supports (as with the NC100) serial I/O on stdin/stdout, parallel
output, the memory card, but *doesn't* support the disk drive. Or the
backlight. :-) (NB: Currently the NC200 isn't supported in the Xlib
version - just in the GTK+ and svgalib versions.)
GTK+ version:
Now automatically resizes window when scale is changed. Thanks to
Steven Flintham for prompting this.
`Mouse support', of a kind. It gives nc100em-aware programs the
ability to read the mouse pointer's position on the NC screen, and
which buttons are pressed. (May be added to other versions at some
point.)
It was hanging as of GTK+ 1.2.6. Fixed it, but the fix is a little
unsightly (it has to resize as soon as the window appears).
Now has an icon.
Pound sign (XK_sterling) didn't work in X versions. Whoops. :-) Thanks
to Steven again for pointing this out. (Also similar fix for Caps
Lock, but while that does now kind-of-work, it doesn't work very
well.)
Doubled default refresh rate.
Fuller NC100 RTC emulation, including the two spare RAM pages.
Now uses value of $NC100EM_HOME (if set) instead of ~/nc100 for dir
containing nc100.rom, nc100.ram, etc.
You can now identify from an NC100 program that you're running in
nc100em. (Though it's pretty obtuse, as it has to be - see the man
page for details.)
Previously, zcnformat had no effect if you didn't compile with
USE_MMAP_FOR_CARD enabled.
zcnren didn't previously check if the new filename was taken - it does
now.
Here's the LSM entry:

This column intends to provide a forum for all GNU maintainers,
friends and associates and I am always open to suggestions. So if
you
* have questions about the GNU Project that might be of general
interest
* have a GNU Project and would like to improve its profile
* would like to start a GNU Project you are looking for people to
start it with
* think something doesn't get the publicity it deserves
* would like to see something made public
send mail to:
"Brave GNU World <column@gnu.org>"

Volunteer Board Members Wanted for the Plex86 Software Foundation
The Organizing Committee of the Plex86 Software Foundation is looking for a
few talented and diligent volunteer board members to help us provide
organizational, legal, and financial support for Plex86 open-source software
projects (www.plex86.org).
The goal of the Plex86 project is to create an extensible open source PC
virtualization software program that will allow PC, and workstation users to
run multiple operating systems concurrently on the same machine. What makes
it challenging on the PC, is that the x86 processor is not "naturally"
virtualizable. That is to say, it was not designed to run multiple operating
systems concurrently. However, with some manipulation and use of system
level features, this can be done. The Plex86 environment makes the processor
virtualization more flexible and controllable than commercial products where
developers do not have access to the source code, such as VMware.
If you can contribute one evening a month and have skills or contacts that
can aid us in the management of funds, intellectual property, accounting,
publicity, fundraising or allocation of resources to projects, please
contact Keith Donaldson at 617.576.9555 or keith@cabali.com to find out more
about whether this volunteer opportunity is right for you.

Subject: WANTED: Bayonne call for volunteers
Date: Sat, 24 Mar 2001 23:54:52 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
Bayonne is a fairly established and ambitious free software project who's
goal, along with that of the larger GNU Telephony Project, GNUCOMM, is to
provide community supported scalable free software based telephony
solutions that are useful for individuals, for the small office and large
commercial enterprise, and for commercial carriers, that can displace the
proprietary solutions commonly used in the telecom industry today. In
addition to being a GNU package and a part of GNUCOMM, Bayonne is also
represented within the GNU Enterprise project.
Bayonne primarily focuses on voice response and what is commonly called a
telephony "application server". Bayonne is written in C++, has a fully
threaded architecture, and is bound together by a common scripting core
and DSO plugins. Other parts of GNUCOMM will focus on many related and
useful areas in providing a complete free software telephony solution.
Bayonne has recently reached release 0.5.17. This release represents a
fairly stable and functional multi-line voice response telephony server
that already works with a fair number of single and multi-line analog (and
soon digital) telephony cards available under GNU/Linux, and that can be
made to support Voicetronix hardware under FreeBSD. However, there are
still many areas of development that have not yet been addressed.
While Bayonne is useful today, we are certainly looking to extend Bayonne
functionality in many additional areas. Since we already have an abstract
interface for "telephony cards", support for entirely softswitch based
sessions will be added alongside traditional multi-line telephony cards
for use in the next generation telephone network, using projects like
openh323 and vovida as the base for these new services. This is just one
of many areas for potential and original development available within
Bayonne.
In issuing a call for volunteers, we are looking for more people to
contribute to development of the Bayonne package, both in specific niches
that have been identified, and in any other places people may identify and
wish to contribute on their own.
Currently, we both have, and need, people to volunteer with development in
several broadly defined areas. Some of these areas are already covered to
a limited degree, but certainly can use help and input from additional
people, and in all areas new contributors can still have a substantial
impact on Bayonne development.
Current active areas of development include redundancy and telephony
cluster server farming, XML scripting, Bayonne plugins, integrating FAX,
TTS, and ASR services, CORBA, more telephony drivers, and IP trunking.
Other areas that we need volunteers for include documentation, packaging,
web development, porting, application development, and voice library
management.
This list is not fixed, but represents how I currently divide Bayonne
development. If people have something different and interesting to
contribute to the package, or even wish to take on a specific challenge in
the broader GNUCOMM project, that would always be welcome as well.
Those interested can start by joining the Bayonne mailing list by sending
e-mail to bayonne-devel-request@lists.sourceforge.net with the body of
the message being "subscribe", or by sending e-mail to me directly,
dyfet@gnu.org

Reply-To: serialmon@roestock.demon.co.uk
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
I've now released version 0.24 of my serial monitor utility.
It allows the monitoring of data transfer rates on a serial line,
requiring only a small kernel patch. It is primarily intended to monitor
dialup links.
Emulates modem frontpanel lights using curses on a console.
Can log statistics to a logfile.
Logging includes the modem line status changes, process id of the
process using the line, total characters transferred in each direction,
the amount of time the line was idle during transfer, and various other
statistics: peak data transfer rate over 1s and 10s, the average data
rate over the whole connect time and the active time.
The tools I wrote for this _will_ eventually be on
ftp://ftp.demon.co.uk/pub/unix/linux/utils/serialmon-0.24.tgz (29124 bytes)
serialmon-0.24.lsm in the same directory is simply the LSM entry for serialmon.
I've uploaded them, but it may take a day or two to reach its final
home. Note that the incoming directory is not readable, so don't bother
trying to get it from there.
The latest version is available now via the link on the serialmon home
page: http://www.roestock.demon.co.uk/serialmon/
Here is the LSM entry:

=========---------------
1). Fixed usage of logfile even if not open.
2). Added shared memory stuff to manage users of the line bandwidth.
3). Typing ^L now causes screen redraw.
4). Restore normal signal handling if ioctls fail to allow easy kill !
5). Fix include files so glibc and libc5 work without special treatment.
6). Use devname rather than argv[1] throughout for consistency.
Enjoy..

Presentation: Printing with the Penguin
Presenter : Adam Williams
How Linux approaches the issue of producing hard-copy is quite diffrent
from the approach of that other operating system, and can be quite
baffling to the new user. In this presentation we will explore
printcap, lpd vs lprNG, and what happened to all the "print drivers".
Adam is a network administrator based in Grand Rapids, but the network
he deals with is all over Michigan, with a couple of hundred
workstations, running Linux and other Operating Systems. Not only does
he deal with domain issues at work, but he is also the owner of the
domain "whitemice.org". Adam has been a regular contributor to
technical discussions on our main mailing list, both presenting and
solving some of the most challenging networking and configuration
problems.
We meet weekly, each Tuesday at 7:00 PM. Our meeting site is Room 4202
of Dunbar Hall on the campus of Western Michigan University. Our
meetings are free and open to the public.
