Last week parts of the #MobileLinux community got together at #FrOSCon and, dare I say, had a great time in our "FOSS on Mobile" devroom 
Throughout two days we had some hacking, lightning talks, workshops and BoFs!
Saturday morning I had the pleasure of welcoming around 5 people (at 10:00 in the morning!)
to the room.
1/N
Lightning talks were scheduled on both saturday and sunday for 14:00 - 15:00.
Sadly I didn't take many pictures,
because I still had to finish up the slides for my presentation at 15:15 
But maybe someone else has taken any and is willing to share :)
Anyway:
@linmob gave a talk about https://linuxphoneapps.org
(slides are available at https://programm.froscon.org/2023/events/2988.html)
We also had a talk about mobile routers using openwrt.
We may have had one more talk,
but I cannot quite remember currently, sorry

Time flew by in my talk and I didn't manage to talk about everything that I originally had planned, but it was still pretty fun and I hope you enjoyed it as well!
Have a look at the slides here:

Directly afterwards we had the #phosh Get Together. If memory serves we must've been between 20 to 30 people (?) and lively discussions where had around all things #phosh and #MobileLinux
Thanks for coming!

In the evening we had the social event and enjoyed the rest of the day with food and drink 
I even got the DJ to play #JethroTull and #kglw #kgatlw 
On sunday the devroom was opened a tad later around 12:00.
Before the lightning talks
@kuleszdl talked about his experiences in supervising student projects in the FOSS Mobile space. #gnome #libadwaita

Our lightning talk session featured
@affe_null left everyone in awe in his talk on "FOSS on feature phones" 
If you understand german, you should most definitely check out the slides: https://programm.froscon.org/2023/events/2989.html

Following we had some discussions around #firmware and how it relates to #software #freedom .
(Let me refer you to a talk by @kyle at FOSSY for more information

@dcz presented how you can add/adapt keyboard layouts for #squeekboard, the OSK used by default in #phosh
Afterwards Prawn talked about Kupfer, a distribution derived from #arch and currently focused on "ex-Android" devices.
Slides should be available soon at

Afterwards @agx talked about "Logs and Backtraces". He explains how meaningful issue reports look like, what tools you have at your disposal on #MobileLinux and more!

I was inspired by this talk so much that I freestyled a "Debugging part two" presentation about "debuginfod", a nice tool that you can use to grab debugging symbols over HTTP using the `DEBUGINFOD_URLS` environment variable.
Followed by an small demo of running #phosh nested.
7/N
@devrtz@fosstodon.orgThe trip home was relatively uneventful:
We hung around with some friends until our bus picked us up.
@madmojo had a beauty sleep during our travels while I filed some TODOs in #orgmode as the impressions were still fresh :)
We want to thank everyone who came by to the devroom, we very much enjoyed all the discussions that ensued.
Of course we also need to thank the orga team as well as the countless helpers who made @FrOSCon happen 
We hope to see you again next year!
