Hi all,
           I would like to share my abstract which is selected for
foss.in as a tech talk(Hacker Session),i am planning to bring this as
kde app, please add your valuable suggestions and comments.

Title :- Go Green - Save Power

Abstract :-
             PowerTop is a software which measures power consumption by
different components of a intel/amd processor based machine.On profiling
power usage deatils suggestions are made to minimize power
usage.Especially it is used to identify unnecessary wakeups preventing
CPU to be in idle state which causes more power consumption.Tips are
generated based on this to optimize power in a better way .This is very
much helpful for laptops to run on battery for more time.Also it plays
major role in green computing as more the power consumes, more the
global warming.
             The original powertop tool from lesswatts.org comes with
ncurses interface which is less user friendly.So the main focus of this
session is to explain the efforts of bringing a better UI for this using
qt libs which is under development by the project qpowertop.Also the
scope(with current status) of developing this as kde application and/or
as a plasmoid will be discussed.The issues traced out and enhancements
planned for this project will be listed out, so that interested people
can start contributing to this.

Prerequisites:-
             C++, Qt Programming, KDE Desktop

Links:-

1. code.google.com/p/qpowertop

2. lesswatts.org/projects/powertop

Thanks&  Regards,
Rajesh Sola.

Its a nice idea and a good addition to KDE. And, I couldn't reply to you on
IRC as I wasn't at my desk, you can use
http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Build/Unstable_Version to get a KDE
trunk build
All the best :)

Hi,

Before I go and book my flight tickets, how many KDE hackers are
coming to Foss.in?
And for people who have attended in the past, is Foss.in *essential* :D ?

Thanks,
Nikhil

Lots of. However, I'm not hacker ;)

Air, Water, Food, Internet and Foss.in. Five essential elements. Now,
decide yourself!

KDE will see a good attendance, as I see it. We seem to have a lot of
KDE stuff happening as well, going by the speaker list. Hope to see
our new commit-bot there :)

Subject: [KDE-India] [X-POST] WANTED: Students who want to learn OpenGL / Qt
	:)
Message-ID: <20091119220800.GW4463@PENGUIN>

Hi

If someone is interested in learning OpenGL / Qt, please let me know.

KStars, the application I maintain, requires a lot of love in this
aspect. Although it has a lot of features, it lacks eye-candy - mostly
because we don't use OpenGL.

If someone is interested in learning these by way of contributing to
KStars, please send me mail, and I should be able to help during
December.

This is (hopefully) a win-win situation. KDE benefits by getting a
nice new GUI and you benefit by learning OpenGL/Qt and real world
coding.

Pre-requisites:
1. C++
2. An open mind
3. A steep learning curve

Regards
Akarsh
