First LinuxQuestions.org kernel patch is released
 
I am happy to announce that the first LinuxQuestions.org kernel release is ready. I started out very modestly, but things will grow from here. This release includes Rik's rmap14a and Ingo's O(1) scheduler. More patches will be added soon. If there is a patch you would like to see included let me know. This has been running on a test machine for about a day with no problems and this site will be running it starting tonight, but use this at your own risk. As always bug reports and suggestions are welcome.

2.4.19-lq1 - http://kernel.linuxquestions.org/2.4.19-lq1
MD5 - http://kernel.linuxquestions.org/2.4.19-lq1.md5

Thanks,

Looks interesting... But I don't have a machine to try. Maybe it's time to find it :)

Wow, that's really cool Jeremy! It caught my eye on the front page while Forums began to load.

Cool

Excellent, I'll try it. Was your test box a SMP?

jeremy 08-28-2002 07:50 PM
The test box was not, but the box this site runs on is.

NeoAnderson 08-30-2002 05:23 AM

Register the project on freshmeat and try to merge some stuff from alan cox's patches into lq kernel patches;)

jeremy 08-30-2002 08:17 PM
Actually I registered it on FM about 5 hours ago, but the project has not been approved yet ;) If you have any specific patches in mind feel free to post them and I will take a look.

Looks like approved now.

Some patches that would be nice to have would be support for other file systems (Like XFS - http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/, Improved ext3 - http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/ext3/ and the TUX)

patch requests
 
Would love to have SWSUSP and ACPI patches incorporated. Have been trying to do it myself and failing miserably.
