Videos and Report From Embedded Linux Conference

Thomas Petazzoni writes "The fourth edition of Embedded Linux Conference was held from April 15 to 17 in Mountain View, California. With more than fifty talks and tutorials around the use of Linux in embedded devices, this conference covered a wide range of topics: power management, debugging techniques, system size reduction, flash filesystems, embedded distributions, real-time, graphics and video, security, etc. For those who could not attend the conference, Free Electrons has published under a free license videos of nineteen talks and an extensive report of them. You can for example watch Andrew Morton's keynote, Klaas van Gend's talk about the real-time version of the Linux kernel, or Mike Anderson's tutorial on the use of JTAG probes for kernel debugging."

"What changes have you seen to Slashdot that have diminished your enjoyment of this site?" Members with 900K+ IDs moaning about how Slashdot has changed?

More on topic, at this year's National Association of Broadcasters conference in Vegas what stood out for me was the number of hardware manufacturers using embedded Linux for control. From transmitter manufacturers on down many were talking it up as a selling point, along with open APIs and interoperability. In this field it appears the tipping point for Linux acceptance has arrived.
