I wasn't able to take more photos as they noticed that I took this photo though I only had to pause for 1 second for the phone to be able to take this.

And the conference is over and took with it everything nice and sweet. It also took the days without enough night sleep.
It gave me friends, More self confidence.
It took one thing that I've been crying on for the last day and night. Also today in the morning.

Today I'll give a 20 minutes short presentation on the State of Arabic FLOSS desktop in the conference
I prepared yesterday te presentation using openoffice impress and it gave me a hard time when it inserted a sound during slide transition.

So, Finally I was able to get my PCI wifi card running under Linux.
I've bought it weeks ago, Whatever I do the box keeps freezing when I bring up the interface.
ndiswrapper is freezing at random points, And finally when I was able to use the GPL'ed driver, I didn't get a connection.

I tried with 6 kernels or so.
I decided to get an old P2 or so and try and yes! IT WORKED.
The damn CNET CWP-854 worked under Linux with the rt2500 driver.
Now I'm enjoying wireless at home with my GNU/Linux semi-access point.
