Kernel Dev - Nick Krause

[Andrew Bourhill]

Nick,


I've been reading the lists for a long long time. My day job is senior embedded linux developer for a mobile comms company, I have many many years experience under my belt.


from what I see is a young fella, possibly fresh out of university trying to cut his teeth on the kernel.


take my advice, leave it alone , you are far too in-experienced to be trying this.

your post to the list are becoming tiresome.


leave it alone, go away and develop your coding skills by writing programs of your own. (i would suggest something simple to start - helloworld)..


this stuff is far too complicated for you - especially device drivers. (these need knowledge of the hardware , also knowledge about how hardware works)


just a bit of friendly advice.


Abo

Abo,
I agreed and that is why I am going through the Eudptuyla Challenge
first before I
continue.
Cheers Nick

Abo,
The issue isn't it's too complicated I am rushing from doing build
fixes to race conditions and I shouldn't rush my
learning curve.

You are constantly full-quoting emails without any sane reason which
proves that you do not read and do not think about what people write to
you.

As a concrete example: You write mails to this mailing list claiming
that you do not write mails to the mailing list in the next time. Think
about it ....

Stop that and just quote the relevant part for your answer - or no one
will start again to even open your mails.

At first, you should should *read*
http://www.albion.com/netiquette/rule4.html and all of the netiquette
and *think* about it.
Then learn to write small and concise emails.

Then read http://catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html and think about
it. If you don't get it, don't ask. Period.

For LKML: Find the LKML-FAQ and read it and think about it. There are
also not-so-technical questions and answers in there. If you even cannot
find the LKML-FAQ, go away.

If you are new to a tool - any tool -, don't ask here basic stuff but
find the relevant place(s). And you have to find them yourselves-
everyone else is actually capable of that.

Or I'm just another victim of a "Turing test" or "Eliza in the 21st
century"?

Kind regards,
	Bernd

PS: No need to answer or apologize - it wouldn't change anything.
