Episode Details

In this episode host Martin and Chris take a closer look at KDE, one of the leading Linux desktop environments. For this endeavour they are joined by no other than Joseph De Veaugh-Geiss, a long-standing KDE veteran, doubling as a community and project manager for a subproject of KDE Eco, concerned with the reduction of the power consumption of your favourite desktop. If you ever wanted to know how to extend the battery life using the right desktop (and who doesn't want to know?), you don't want to miss this show!
