I'm only a couple of years deep into kernel hacking so I wanted to reach out to those more experienced than myself (and those less experienced). Is there any thing that you would really like to see covered in this tutorial? If you are a grey beard is there anything that you have been lamenting us newbies not knowing/doing? If you are a newbie is there anything that you are struggling with that you really want to learn? Current format/content: the tutorial will attempt to bridge the gap in the learning process between the 'first patch' page on kernelnewbies.org wiki and being 'comfortable' patching the kernel via LKML. Outcome will (hopefully) be a small patch set into drivers/staging/. (Don't worry Greg only one group got to this stage last time, you won't get flooded with patches :) Thanks, Tobin. _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org https://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
