janmsistooschr | hello | 01:20 |
---|---|---|
janmsistooschr | Will you create a custom kernel source? | 01:20 |
janmsistooschr | I can pay for a custom kernel support. | 01:36 |
janmsistooschr | apw, interested? | 01:36 |
ohsix | have you actually asked how to do something? people aren't here for money motivations per-se, so it won't necessarily be conducive | 01:38 |
janmsistooschr | Canonical is defunct? | 01:39 |
janmsistooschr | I want a custom kernel built without virtio | 01:41 |
ohsix | that is really easy to do | 01:41 |
ohsix | you can also disable their use from the kernel commandline | 01:41 |
janmsistooschr | I want the source setup this way. | 01:41 |
janmsistooschr | Not just the menuconfig options. | 01:42 |
janmsistooschr | I want it custom built with the drivers for the hardware on a specific machine. | 01:42 |
ohsix | there's make localmodconfig | 01:43 |
janmsistooschr | I can register the machine and pay for the custom kernel. | 01:43 |
ohsix | why do you want to do this? | 01:44 |
janmsistooschr | What is makelocalmodconfig? | 01:44 |
janmsistooschr | I need to test theorys for computer science research. | 01:44 |
ohsix | how does disabling some drivers help that | 01:45 |
janmsistooschr | the basic scientific method requires controls | 01:45 |
ohsix | depends on the nature of what you're testing | 01:46 |
ohsix | disabling 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 way | 01:46 |
ohsix | there's also the possibility of not using linux alltogether if you really need that much control for what you're testing | 01:47 |
ohsix | you won't be able to control for say, firmware effects, you may not even be able to know about many of them | 01:47 |
janmsistooschr | ohsix, I noticed something peculiar even when using win 5.1 | 01:48 |
janmsistooschr | ohsix, What software do you suggest then ohsix | 01:49 |
ohsix | i still have no idea what you want to do, and you aren't doing much to help that | 01:54 |
janmsistooschr | ohsix, to be able to look at the virtual clouds I need a stable unvirtualized system. | 02:07 |
ohsix | i still don't know how any drivers you're not using will imply instability | 02:12 |
janmsistooschr | I did not make the claim. | 02:21 |
janmsistooschr | I state what I want. | 02:21 |
ohsix | what you want makes no sense, i'm asking for context to give you some useful advice | 02:24 |
janmsistooschr | I want a machine without vitual capability. | 02:24 |
ohsix | virtio is only tangentially related to that | 02:26 |
ohsix | it 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 drivers | 02:27 |

oscar__ | Hi there, just wondering if there's any kernel programming related job position you know about | 20:03 |
JanC | oscar__: 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 listing | 20:20 |
JanC | well, 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 JanC | 20:24 |
JanC | if 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 |
bry8knight | hello | 22:21 |
bry8knight | What kernel version is used by hardy? | 22:21 |
bry8knight | apw awake? | 22:22 |
JanC | s/is/was/ :) | 22:27 |
bry8knight | JanC was? | 22:41 |
bry8knight | JanC is it no longer functional? | 22:41 |
JanC | hardy is not a supported release anymore | 22:41 |
bry8knight | That is fine there is no support anyhow. | 22:42 |
bry8knight | Even when offered currency. | 22:42 |
bry8knight | Just robots arguing. | 22:42 |
bry8knight | Without virtio they shalln't be able to move onto my machine. | 22:43 |
bry8knight | They can be useful. | 22:49 |
bry8knight | As it is they are arguing with me. | 22:50 |
bry8knight | JanC: comprende? | 22:51 |
bry8knight | You can't allow mormons to touch the code. | 22:52 |
bry8knight | And expect to have purpose to existing. | 22:53 |
bry8knight | JanC: comprende? | 22:56 |
ohsix | wut | 23:05 |
bry8knight | you are unstable | 23:06 |
bry8knight | needing to be corrected | 23:14 |
bry8knight | to be lifted up | 23:25 |
bry8knight | to function | 23:26 |
bry8knight | en arche eyn ho logos | 23:30 |
bry8knight | I am searching for a logic course for you. | 23:31 |
bry8knight | Does it sound interesting? | 23:31 |
infinity | bry8knight: 2.6.24 | 23:47 |
bry8knight | infinity: bless you | 23:47 |
