Embedded Systems Conference, San Jose

Doug will be speaking at the Embedded Systems Conference in San Jose on Monday, March 26 from 1 to 3pm.  The topic is Device Drivers Demystified.  We'll start by developing a generic model of what device drivers are all about and then go on to examine the specific Linux implementation of that generic model.

If you'll be at the conference, shoot me an email and let's try to get together.

Moving up to Fedora 14

After probably two years of using Fedora 11, I'm finally upgrading to Fedora 14.  Yes, I know, the latest release is 15, but I haven't tested it yet.  14 seems to work fine except for the serial driver for the docking port on Lenovo laptops.
