Hi All

Please excuse the dumb question,
Is there doco on how to install the developerworks code, I am waiting for
the powers that be to approve a POC, but I would like to get started with
some self education before.


The audience for this code is the distributors and a few skilled people
who hack the stuff themselves. The rest of us will get it in the
maintenance from their distributor at some later time. In most cases you
start with a SuSE or Red Hat distribution which is different from the
vanilla kernel where the DeveloperWorks patches fit on. Reworking the
patches to fit some intermediate level of SuSE or Red Hat is
time-consuming. I would suggest to stick with the distribution for your
Proof of Concept. If you really think there is something vital in the
bleeding edge patches that makes the difference for your PoC, you could
ask here for a helping hand or find the distributor willing to pick up
that code.
