[ilugd] L4Linux
L4Linux is a port of the Linux kernel to the L4 µ-kernel API. It is a (para-)virtualized Linux running on top of a hypervisor, completely without privileges if wanted. L4Linux runs in user-mode on top of the µ-kernel, side-by-side with other µ-kernel applications such as real-time components. It is binary-compatible with the normal Linux/x86 kernel and can be used with any PC-based Linux distribution. The DROPS operating system project supports running time-sharing and real-time applications applications concurrently on one computer. The L4Linux server has been originally created to support time-sharing applications. The port provides us with a basis platform for future development work. Compared to monolithic Linux, there is a small performance tradeoff because of the µ-kernel architecture. However, the initial L4Linux has been somewhat optimized, and on L4/x86 it has a very acceptable slowdown of less than 4 % for any relevant load.

[ilugd] Hardware for Software??
Hi guys, I read this article: *Title:* Windows 7 will be MS' answer to Vista's faults *Link*: http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/articleshow/3649393.cms** It is mentioned between the lines that Microsoft is working with PC makers to make the hardware compatible with Windows 7 and readily available in market. My dilemma is- We make software for hardware or vice versa?? What is the right approach? I feel the former is logically and traditionally correct. Lets see what everyone has to say.

Cheers! -- Prakhar Agarwal Prakhar, the statement is partially correct. Basically this implies two things: 1. MS works with PC makers to make sure that their hardware configurations are capable of running windows, (certified that the configuration will work with windows) 2. MS also fixes issues found in windows during this exercise and/or create/accept/certify drivers/bios etc for different hw.. -- I didn't do it, nobody saw me do it, U can't prove anything - Bart Simpson http://blog.shantanugoel.com http://tech.shantanugoel.com ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
