Extensive Coverage of Ottawa Linux Symposium 2006
cdlu writes "LWN and NewsForge both extensively covered the goings-on at this year's OLS. NewsForge: day 1, day 2, day 3, and day 4. LWN (subscription required for most): article 1, article 2, article 3, and article 4." I especially enjoyed the description of reverse engineering a USB device from cdlu's coverage of day 3; one day wireless USB devices will really work with out-of-the-box Linux! Update: 07/25 04:57 GMT by T : Eric Preston, who delivered that talk on reverse engineering USB devices, kindly linked to both his slides and the accompanying screenshots.
"one day wireless USB devices will really work with out-of-the-box Linux!"
Not as long as dumb users keep accepting binary only shit drivers. Until the morons stop creating the problem, there will continue to be more hardware needing reverse engineering than people with the skill, time, and patience to do the work.

Yeah. And Linux is really, really, really almost half-ready for the desktop. Really, we are serious this time; I kid you not, I swear.
Xen's overhead may be bigger, but at least it only affects the people who use it.
Containers hurt everybody.
And this is why you Linux-haters deserve no respect. You refer to us using every narrow-minded insult you can think of, and yet you expect us to come around to your point of view. These personal attacks and deliberate lies make you a troll, not "Insightful" in any way.
