As i am writing, I am installing the stable release of OpenSUSE 11, the latest distro of the same named project.
I was simply fascinated how the distro is well polished, recognised my madwifi-based wireless card, sound, and graphics card instantly, so i was able to continue my work as the distro itself installed.
KDE4 was the desktop of my choice. Trough it was not able to shine fully since OpenGL was not setup in the live version, I found the interface to be quite appealing.
Yast2 has gotten a really impressive makeover, cutting down processing time multiple times.
Many programs arent ported to KDE4 yet so any big changes from what i had setup on 10.3 werent expected.
All in all, Install is fast, the interface is simple, the programs are new.
Visited the IAS in Maribor today. It was raining so the actual air attractions were limited. You can check out the official gallery here.
Also on site was the Slovenian military showing off their gadgets, you can see the pictures i took after the jump.

After couple of hours, here is it: A libcaca extension to Mjpg-Stream[singlepic=141,300,200,,][singlepic=140,300,200,,]
You need img2txt from the libcaca-utilities and /dev/shm to be mounted and writable (or change to another location)
/dev/shm is present on most systems and is a mounted filesystem located on the main ram.
The source is in past the page brake.
