SUMMARY:Udev: Ugly? Bad? Good?... Or Bleeding Edge?
DESCRIPTION:Reminder: \nThis is on Tuesday 02/04/2013 \n  \nOr: How not to do an update!\nThis talk is a little story for one example where a few bits went astray for my own experience of a slightly messy update to Gentoo… This is also a bit of an ‘expośe’ of how FLOSS works 🙂 \nDon’t worry about all the cryptic names. It’s the surrounding stories and bun-fight that’s fun! 😉 \nUdev…\n \n… is changing and merging into/with something new and something controversial. All a very radical change to replace a critical part that has for too long many years remained almost unchanged since SysV Unix!… \nNever heard of udev? Don’t worry… It’s one of those kernel-thingies that should never be seen. Which is all well and fine when it “Just Simply Works”… And full credit to Linus and many others for where the “Just Simply Works” usually works very well in the world of Linux. \nThe ‘working well’ has to include not ‘breaking’ other system details. One of Linus’ more famous rants is that of: “WE DO NOT BREAK USERSPACE! Seriously.” (That Slashdot discussion of the LKML thread goes off rambling somewhat. A more succinct summary is given on “YOU DO NOT BREAK USER SPACE!”.) \nSo… This is a little story of when udev unexpectedly became ‘visible’ for my one small example\, dragging in the controversy surrounding systemd and OpenRC and “how ‘best’ to do things”. All ‘just’ for the sake of a something different init?… \n  \nAll at: \nFellows Morton and Clayton\n54 Canal Street\nNottingham\, NG1 7EH\nTelephone: 0115 9506795 \nlatitude = 52.948615\nlongitude = -1.148431\nGoogle map \n\nFood is also served up until 8pm. \nFor the expected cold evening\, we’ll be initially huddled near the bar to then later move over to a quiet area with promised hot air to warm our meeting. Just look for the Linux mags and gadgets (or ask the friendly bar staff where to find us 🙂 ). \n  \nTuesday 02/04/2013: \n\n7:30pm: Meet\n8:00pm: Discussions/Talks\n\n  \nAll welcome! \nCheers\,\nMartin \n
