X.Org FOSDEM 2008 Videos Available

Posted by Michael Larabel on February 27, 2008

For those interested, all of the X.Org "DevRoom" talks are available online for video download from RadeonHD.org. Among the speakers were AMD's John Bridgman, Novell's Egbert Eich, Remi Cardona with Metisse, Daniel Stone, TG's Keith Whitwell for Gallium3D, Jerome Glisse, and Keith Packard. The videos can be downloaded in Ogg Theora format from this video link.

Likewise, you can read our notes from Keith Packard's talk (Features Of A Happy Linux Desktop? and XvMC To Support More Video Standards?), the Project VGA talk, the Metisse road-map, RadeoNHD talk, Gallium3D status update, and last but not least is AMD's open-source plans. At FOSDEM 2008 was also a Beer Event and X.Org Dinner.
