Questionnaire to be submitted on first day

Lab 162 equipment --- Please see this page for info on the hardware and software available in lab 162.

Flashzone Wireless Access --- See this page for how to get on the wireless Internet on campus.

Lab 162 security --- The lab is important to our class, not to mention others. Everyone should know that the lab must be locked with lights and all monitors off (whoever leaves the room last must make sure). The lab door sticks sometimes, so make sure it is pulled closed as you leave. Do not rely on the automatic closing action of the door.

In the CS 162 Lab --- If a station is not running Windows, it is running Linux. The way to get back from Linux to Windows is

hit ctrl-alt-f1 (all three keys down)
hit ctrl-alt-delete
wait for Windows to boot

In the CS 162 Lab, we have wireless access to the Internet for anyone who wishes to bring in their own notebook computers. Please make sure you have enough battery power (75 min) for our typical class. Due to electric power limitations in room 162, it is recommended that you avoid plugging in your notebook to the power supply in the room. When you set up your wireless card, pick the "CS" or "Flashzone" wireless port.

Student Web Space --- Students should put their personal web page on the CS servers.

Some Helpful info for Mac Users
