janmsistooschrhello01:20
janmsistooschrWill you create a custom kernel source?01:20
janmsistooschrI can pay for a custom kernel support.01:36
janmsistooschrapw, interested?01:36
ohsixhave you actually asked how to do something? people aren't here for money motivations per-se, so it won't necessarily be conducive01:38
janmsistooschrCanonical is defunct?01:39
janmsistooschrI want a custom kernel built without virtio01:41
ohsixthat is really easy to do01:41
ohsixyou can also disable their use from the kernel commandline01:41
janmsistooschrI want the source setup this way.01:41
janmsistooschrNot just the menuconfig options.01:42
janmsistooschrI want it custom built with the drivers for the hardware on a specific machine.01:42
ohsixthere's make localmodconfig01:43
janmsistooschrI can register the machine and pay for the custom kernel.01:43
ohsixwhy do you want to do this?01:44
janmsistooschrWhat is makelocalmodconfig?01:44
janmsistooschrI need to test theorys for computer science research.01:44
ohsixhow does disabling some drivers help that01:45
janmsistooschrthe basic scientific method requires controls01:45
ohsixdepends on the nature of what you're testing01:46
ohsixdisabling drivers that aren't in use, or one tha tis in use in favor of another doesn't really change how the kernel behaves in a meaningful way01:46
ohsixthere's also the possibility of not using linux alltogether if you really need that much control for what you're testing01:47
ohsixyou won't be able to control for say, firmware effects, you may not even be able to know about many of them01:47
janmsistooschrohsix, I noticed something peculiar even when using win 5.101:48
janmsistooschrohsix, What software do you suggest then ohsix 01:49
ohsixi still have no idea what you want to do, and you aren't doing much to help that01:54
janmsistooschrohsix, to be able to look at the virtual clouds I need a stable unvirtualized system.02:07
ohsixi still don't know how any drivers you're not using will imply instability02:12
janmsistooschrI did not make the claim.02:21
janmsistooschrI state what I want.02:21
ohsixwhat you want makes no sense, i'm asking for context to give you some useful advice02:24
janmsistooschrI want a machine without vitual capability.02:24
ohsixvirtio is only tangentially related to that02:26
ohsixit is used in place of simulating an ata/scsi port with a real driver, because it can be more efficient; same thing for virtual network drivers02:27

oscar__Hi there, just wondering if there's any kernel programming related job position you know about 20:03
JanCoscar__: Canonical jobs are at http://www.canonical.com/careers (but I think I see no kernel job right now?)20:19
oscar__Thanks JanC, I saw that but though maybe there were jobs outside that listing20:20
JanCwell, many companies do an "internal search" before publicizing a job, so there is always that possibility...20:21
oscar__anyone has worked on that kinda job and would be willing to tell me the experience?20:24
oscar__thanks JanC20:24
JanCif you idle in the channel maybe later one of Canonical's kernel developers will see your question  :)20:28
oscar__I hope so!20:34
bry8knighthello22:21
bry8knightWhat kernel version is used by hardy?22:21
bry8knightapw awake?22:22
JanCs/is/was/  :)22:27
bry8knightJanC was?22:41
bry8knightJanC is it no longer functional?22:41
JanChardy is not a supported release anymore22:41
bry8knightThat is fine there is no support anyhow.22:42
bry8knightEven when offered currency.22:42
bry8knightJust robots arguing.22:42
bry8knightWithout virtio they shalln't be able to move onto my machine.22:43
bry8knightThey can be useful.22:49
bry8knightAs it is they are arguing with me.22:50
bry8knightJanC: comprende?22:51
bry8knightYou can't allow mormons to touch the code.22:52
bry8knightAnd expect to have purpose to existing.22:53
bry8knightJanC: comprende?22:56
ohsixwut23:05
bry8knightyou are unstable23:06
bry8knightneeding to be corrected23:14
bry8knightto be lifted up23:25
bry8knightto function23:26
bry8knighten arche eyn ho logos23:30
bry8knightI am searching for a logic course for you.23:31
bry8knightDoes it sound interesting?23:31
infinitybry8knight: 2.6.2423:47
bry8knightinfinity: bless you23:47
