Keynote presentation: Kyle Rankin, DVD Authoring with Linux

In this talk Kyle will demonstrate live how to create your own DVD
with menus from a sample video--all using Open Source software under
Linux.

Kyle Rankin is a system administrator for Quinstreet, Inc., the
current president of the North Bay Linux Users Group, and the author
of Knoppix Hacks, Knoppix Pocket Reference, and Linux Multimedia
Hacks. Kyle has been using Linux in one form or another since early
1998. In his free time he does pretty much the same thing he does at
work--works with Linux.

Members' Minutes

Members will have an opportunity to take a few minutes to...

* Describe their latest Linux discovery
