[Leaplist] The School, Monday update

[patrick]

I followed up on the report from June and Gail, that a couple computers
in the High School weren't able to go on the Internet.

A connector on the end of a Cat 5 cable was missing the locking latch,
and the cable was just stretched enough to put some pressure on it.

Replaced the cable, then activated the two computers on that switch and
they came up good.

One computer seems to shut down after an hour, so, with coordination of
Miss June, removed one from the K thru 4th grade class in Bldg. C to
place there.  The bad one is marked and on the side shelf where many
other defective things are stacked.

Also, hooked up two desktops on the side table ( replacing the compaq
Armada laptops we wiped and need to install FC7 on), and brought over
the two IBM laptops, hooked up a switch, plus ran an extension cord to
power them until the electrician repairs that wall outlet.

High School classroom in Bldg. A now has 9 desktop Compaq Evo systems
plus the two IBM laptops.  They worked fine on the internet.

They will bring three computers from storage to place the two in the K
thru 4th grade classroom, plus to have one spare on hand there for
future failures.
