I have no choice but to use stock kernels in my production servers. I have general purpose servers and you never know what or when you need to plug in new hardware or peripherals. It's a pain if you need to recompile the kernel everytime you plug in a new peripheral. The only time I need to compile is when I need a module for a piece of hardware not supported by the stock kernel, even then, I only compile the module but leave the kernel itself untouched.
Now, I just realized this is an Oracle email list. Sure looks like a LUG email list. -- Lyndon Tiu Quoting Jan Pruner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Hmmm, I'm using SuSE on my servers more than 3 years > and I've never used kernel from distribution and I hope nobody is using > standard kernel on server. -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: Lyndon Tiu INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- 858-538-5051 http://www.fatcity.com San Diego, California -- Mailing list and web hosting services --------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
