So I managed to get a ticket to LinuxCon, and I am so excited since it's gong to be my first Linux conference! But at the same time I feel terrified: I'm still not very experienced and I don't know what to expect.

I've been a lurker for a reaaaally long time, only recently I decided to put my hands to work. I'm interested in the developing part, plus the sys admin part. Feeling curious about kernel, writing drivers and such. Having this in mind, does anyone have tips for me, what to look forward?

If you want details the presenters at the conference will likely talk to you as much as you like, and you can tease out details you are interested in..

I love to see the new ideas and OSS vs commercial possibilities..
