We're getting OT so preferably mail me directly rather than on-list if you wish to continue this, but briefly... I've found the kernel coverage at Linux Weekly News, http://lwn.net , very useful. There's stuff from beginner [1] up thru at least intermediate level and it's a well respected and oft quoted source, plus Jon Corbet, the primary editor, gets to (and covers) most of the various kernel related conferences as well. He has a book out on Linux kernel 2.6 drivers, as well. There's also kernel newbies and other resources, but you'll find lots of links to follow at LWN and can go from there. --- [1] As in I don't claim to do C code in userspace, let alone kernel, but can follow this coverage. I do run the RCs and am starting into running the linus git master branch, after filing and git bisecting several bugs, so I'm progressing... -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
