U stvari u Linux je ubudzivano uvek sve i svasta - ukljucujuci i dual head VGA-Hercules [sic!] konzolu
Svuda sem u Linuxu se drajver izbacuje iz developer verzije (ili ne ubacuje uopste) ako se lepo ne ponasa... Binarna kompatibilnost za drajvere je misaona imenica i to je razlog zasto firme i ne podrzavaju linux drajverima - koliko ja znam pre 10godina ja sam dobio drajver za plocu i za SCO iako se radilo o obicnoj jeftinoj 486 ploci koja ni tad nije bila bogznasta... To nije bio problem da se implementira uopste, ali kako kaze
Citat:
# Drivers outside the kernel tree and binary drivers take away from Linux, they give nothing back. This was one of the main statements from Andrew Morton's 2004 OLS keynote, and I agree. Out of the box, Linux supports more hardware devices than any other operating system. That is very important, and is something that we could not have done without the drivers being in our tree.
# If a kernel api is not being used by anyone in the tree, we delete it. We have no way of knowing if there is some user of this api in a driver living outside on some sf.net site somewhere. I have been yelled at for removing apis like this, when there was no physical way I could have possibly known that someone was using this interface. To prevent this, get your driver into the kernel tree. By doing this, it will force you to write good kernel code (up to the standard of the rest of the tree), and it will let other people fix your bugs easier, and if any kernel api changes, the person who changes it will fix your driver for you. This is the power of opensoruce development, why try to subvert it?
Kako kaze 'linux kernel monkey'

A kako je sa hotplugom? I to podrzava out-of-the-box
Je li? Bas ce da promene sors odmah kad ja budem imao problema sa Linuxom na nekom UNISYSu?
Mozemo samo da se lazemo
Jos se i API menja svakicas, neko ocekuje samo da se hackuju drajveri sa svakim novim izdanjem kernela
Iz nekog mog iskustva sa Linuxom i WinXP XP je i robusniji od Linuxa... Narocito tu mislim da screensaver ne moze da 'zamrzne' sistem, a o KDE necu ni da pricam
Iskreno, RH9+KDE3.1-redhat (dakle KDE menjan - podosta - za RedHat) vs. Slackware 10.1+vanilla KDE 3.2 ma to ne moze da se uporedi uopste...
