And now that I need it, the battery applet and all that, I’m just astonished how well it performs. And how many options it has. Kudos for all involved!

then there is kde bluetooth stack. Again awesome, cell-to-laptop-to-main-computer…

KWin on eee

KWin is fast, plasma also, everything is just… awesome!

BTW, this is the first time I don’t use self-compiled KDE4 packages, and it’s not bad at all. Debian’s KDE team made very good packages of 4.2, and even though 4.2 is in experimental repo (I’m using Sid on this eee), it behaves better than kubuntu installations on my familie’s computers.

So three times “hurray” to all mentioned above!

eeeLancelot

Well, I just wanted to show you the prize I won thanks to Qt Centre’s contest I mentioned sometime ago. Special kudos go to miss (or Mrs) Erica Brescia and Bitrock for providing me with this beauty!

And, I would like to take this chance to congratulate the other winers of the contest, and that I hope that they will enjoy their prizes as much as I do mine.

eeeLancelot

I’ve named my new pet eeeLancelot for obvious reasons. It currently runs with some strange looking KDE manufactured by Xandros. But not for long, I’ve begun the Debianization, so soon it will be a clean Debian GNU/Linux with KDE 4.2.

Cheerio!
