Re: [ilugd] kernel Programming

 Well, I have done some Linux kernel programming when I was working for
 Glendix
 for some time. I was trying to add another system call to the existing
 Linux
 kernel to help run the user space programs of Plan9 operating system.

 If you are interested in kernel programming, just dig into the code, see
 what
 all is happening, plan what you want to do/change and make a patch for it.
 For example, you want to make another system call, read the kernel docs
 where
 the system calls code resides, how they work and how can you change them
 etc.

 There is a lot of community support in Linux kernel especially on
 newsgroups
 and IRC. And of course, we all are here, in case you need some help
 (hopefully
 we'll be able to help you). :)



Well, I guess the main task will be to find something meaningful project.

Also as you said there are a lot of resources and that can be pretty
confusing :)
As for me, I am currently reading about file systems. Am going through tux3
code
and will hopefully start coding soon.

What about others? Any plans as such?

Thanks,

It would be nice to have some interactions and discussions if possible.
Any other person interested to start is also welcome to reply :)

 Hey,

 I used to dabble a little around the time of the 2.4 kernels.  Never
 monitored the list but I know those who did/do.

 What specifically are you/the group interested in?

 nothing specific. Am just wading into the dark kernel waters. Thought I
could

 Hi all...need some help!
Hello,


 1. 2.5Ghz/2.6 Ghz dual core processor ( is there a major difference in the
 speed of the two... as the difference in the price is pretty large).

2.5Ghz is good enough. 2.6 costs an aweful more for 100mhz.

 2. two separate hard disks (making at least 250GB) for linux and windows,
 respectively. Are there any issues such as heating and speed with two
 separate hard drives on the laptop?
 The option I got was a 200GB SATA HDD (7.2k rpm) + 80MB PATA (5400 rpm) 2nd
 drive...I am a bit skeptical about the PATA drive!!!

why dont u take the second one as sata too??
 3. 1X2GB SDRAM
 4. 9 cell Li-ion bettery

Bad choice, if u ask me. 9 cell battery of dell is too heavy and
carrying around the laptop will prove quite a burden.
 5. 8X DVD RW
 6. 6MB L2 Cache with 800MHz FSB
 7. blue tooth
 8. wi-fi etc.

 Which audio/video, wireless network cards are the best with Linux ?

 Should there be any other issues you know of and would like to share?

Try the live cd if u have access to a machine and see if it works before buying.
