Animus Wisdom

After some nice R&R, I’m back :)
I had a few medical and financial problems to plow through but I’m ready for July and the great events I will take part in. First stop GCDS! I will be talking about KDE Mexico and how we could relate the work we are doing to other Latin countries and I will do a few smaller conferences around northern Mexico! So expect lots of pictures and posts. :D

It’s nice to be back!
P.S. I’m officially debt free :D AWESOME!!!

CONSOL 2009 was great, I met up with the Monterrey KDE Mexico team and we spread the KDE love at the event; As always I encouraged all the people there to try out KDE, specially KDE 4.2.2 and to send in their comments and suggestions. I was happy to see many people notice how stable KDE 4.2.2 is and how well it runs on a lappy running FreeBSD that is also compiling in the background and with DRI disabled on X.org. We started distributing schwag, got PC-BSD and Kubuntu disks in the hands of almost everybody in the room ( we ran out ). By the end we had a room full of happy people and we got two new KDE Mexico members. \o/ yeey

During a short lunch break I started talking with the ENLi organizers over submitting Puebla as a location for next years Camp KDE.

I want to thank both PC-BSD, Kubuntu and Larry Cafiero ( FSF ) for sending us the great schwag we gave out at the event.

Howdy Everybody,

I want to inform everybody that I will be attending CONSOL 2009 next week for two days ( Thursday and Friday ), I will be giving away some KDE Schwag with a few other KDE Mexico members, so be sure to come and say: “Howdy!”.

As many of you know, I have been contacting different KDE supporting distributions and operating systems that might want to get their product out there and in turn help us get KDE into the hands of the Mexican people.

I would like to thank our first supporter iXsystems for the great PC-BSD Schwag they send to us.

About PC-BSD

PC-BSD is a complete desktop operating system, which has been designed with the “casual” computer user in mind. It offers the stability and security that only a BSD-based operating system can bring, while as the same time providing a comfortable user experience, allowing you to get the most out of your computing time. With PC-BSD you can spend less time working to fix viruses or spyware and instead have the computer work for you.

Installing the system is simply a matter of a few clicks and a few minutes for the installation process to finish. Hardware such as video, sound, network and other devices will be auto-detected and available at the first system startup. Home users will immediately feel comfortable with PC-BSD’s desktop interface, with KDE running under the hood. Software installation has also been designed to be as painless as possible, simply double-click and software will be installed.
