For the next couple of days (Sep 30 - Oct 2), the Linux lab (NWC 5720) will be having new images of the OS installed on the machines. This is to update some softwares that are needed for classes. These upgrades include GEMPAK, NCL, IDV and a separate Python framework. When you enter the lab, there may be 2-4 machines that will be undergoing the updates. I will be keeping in mind the class schedule and will work on not having updates occurring while there is a need of the machine for class. I hope to have the new image pushed out to all the a machines by Friday Oct 2.

Late this morning the Mac lab printer stopped working while trying to use the duplexer. The printer tech was called and worked on the printer. The problem is looking like a bad sensor in the printer. The printer works fine for single page copies, so the temporary solution is the printer from the linux lab has replaced the Mac lab printer. Print services for both labs is up and running, with duplex printing available in the Mac lab and single page printing available in the linux lab.
