Embedded Linux Conference Europe 2009
A couple days ago Juanjo asked me if I wanted to attend the Embedded Linux Conference at Grenoble, France, sponsored by the CE Linux forum and I usually don’t say “no” to travel. So one day after I unpacked from Barcelona, I packed again.

misc
Do you remember that I promised not to use a minimalist window manager? Well, sorry, another broken promise. Since I started to play around with imapfilter, I discovered lua. Moreover, a comment in a previous post made a mention of awesome, a minimalist window manager configured through lua. So, I installed it, play with it, and suddenly I got delighted with all of its features: Awesome comes along pretty well with Gnome and its panel, which I didn’t want to lose at all. Besides, Awesome provides its own panel (called widget box, a.k.a. wibox), which includes a systray (sadly, awesome systray steals the icons from the gnome-panel systray). I’ve found that a tidy desktop, which avoids to the user unnecessary mouse interactions, is much more relaxed and helps the user to focus on her task. We’ll see how this experiment ends.
