Just curious. I was wondering if I was the only one who gets bored enough to listen to it. I actually listen to about every night.

Since it is now the default, I have listened to some. But usually, I go to shoutcast and find something better. Then I have that going while I am on-line.

How do we find it?

"The Linux Show" When on-line just startup xMMs and click the play button. You may have to turn up the volume. It is the default in xMMs. Be sure you have a recent version of DSL. Maybe 0.6.1+

I've been listening the last few weeks while at work. I'm following the SCO and Novell developments. You can get to it by going to www.thelinuxshow.com and then go to the archive link on the left. Those guys need to learn a bit more about broadcasting though. They claim to be pros, but the levels on the various guys calling in to be part of the show are not mixed correctly (a couple of guys are REAL loud), they don't know how to use the cough button (I frequently hear sneezes, coughs, throat clearing, sniffing, snort, etc.), and their lead in/bumper music doesn't always get faded in out properly. But what are you gonna do with a free show where you get to hear Eric Raymonding ranting about setting up his scanner.

I'm listening to it now, using Damn Small 0.6.2---
It works very well, and it is a useful addition to Damn Small. Lots of interesting
topics discussed, and we can all see if our Sound Cards work in Damn Small!

Oh wait. They are getting into a fight over some topic on "The Linux Show".
Ow! Biff! Pow!

Gee, I think I'll try the Low Bandwidth Mp3 Streams...

Hmmm. Now if I could just get my sound to work on my laptop. Guess I will have to check out the addy and listen through windoze

Yes, I listen to it every time I boot DSL for a session.
