round 12

round 12

[Julia Lawall]

The application period for round 12 will be February 9 - March 22.  If you
haven't been an intern before, please consider applying.  If you have been
an intern before, please consider whether you know someone else who might
like to apply :)

The eligibility seems to be the same as in round 11:

Currently, internships are open internationally to women (cis and trans),
trans men, and genderqueer people. Additionally, they are open to
residents and nationals of the United States of any gender who are
Black/African American, Hispanic/Latin@, American Indian, Alaska Native,
Native Hawaiian, or Pacific Islander.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Julia

Hello, Julia!

On this <http://kernelnewbies.org/OutreachyIntro> page, under Round 12 
projects, I see only Coccinelle. Will more projects be updated in the 
future or is Coccinelle the only one?

Thanks!
Janani

Looks like your bluetooth patch has been applied. And about your staging
patches, please wait for 1 - 2 weeks more.

And just few things before the round starts.
1) do not top post.
2) do not send mime-formatted mails.

Hello,
 
My name is Surabhi and I wish to participate in the upcoming round of 
Outreachy. 
I am facing some difficulty in making a change in the driver. I have been 
trying to add the command 
printk(KERN_DEBUG "I can modify the Linux kernel!\n");
in the e1000_main.c as mentioned on the link 
<http://kernelnewbies.org/Outreachyfirstpatch>, but after make -j4, 
installing and rebooting and dmesg | less, I am not able to find the change 
that I have made. It says pattern not be found.
Could someone please help me with this?

Thanks,
Surabhi

Maybe your machine is not using this driver?  You can use the command
lsmod to see what modules you have installed.  You can also use the
command lspci to find the hardware that is available on your machine.

Hello Julia,

I have made some changes and have been trying to submit a patch since 
yesterday but can't get the mailer working. I tried Mutt and git send-email 
but the problem is that they use SMTP and I'm behind a HTTP proxy. I tried 
tunneling SMTP traffic through the HTTP proxy by using proxytunnel but 
that's not working. I'm not sure if I did it the right way but I followed this 
blog post <https://sandalov.org/blog/2088/>. Can you suggest some other way 
of submitting patches or maybe a mailer which can work behind an HTTP proxy?

Thanks,
Surabhi
