| 07:23 | <Pert> | perlmonkee: does your distro not use a newer kernel? |
| 07:23 | <Pert> | s/use/offer/ |
| 07:48 | <Pert> | perlmonkee: fedora 9 has a 2.6.25. ubuntu hardy has 2.6.24. debian lenny also has 2.6.24. |

| 17:34 | <perlmonkee> | Pert: I'm not talking about linux "Distros" - I'm talking about Xen. If you read the first thing I said again: "2.6.18 kernel thats part of the normal xen 3.2 distro" - I'm talking about the tarballs available from xen.org/xensource |
| 17:35 | <Pert> | i saw that, but why use them if your distro has a kernel that does what you need? |
| 17:36 | <perlmonkee> | I'm not using a linux distro that supports Xen. I'm also not entirely convinced that all of those distros you listed use those kernels when under Xen. |
| 17:37 | <perlmonkee> | I'm having a hell of a time with 3.2.0 - with the mercurial repository in specific. |
| 17:38 | <perlmonkee> | my efforts to run hg clone http://xenbits.xensource.com/linux-2.6.18-xen.hg result in it hanging at "adding file change" every time. |
| 17:38 | <perlmonkee> | it just sits there... not doing anything. |
| 17:41 | <Pert> | perlmonkee: they do use those kernel versions. i checked each distro's package list |
| 17:42 | <Pert> | how about using a distro that does support xen as your dom0? it's easy to use any old UNIX as a domU |
| 17:43 | <perlmonkee> | You ever read that terribly annoying article written by that windbag "How to ask questions the smart way"? |
| 17:43 | <perlmonkee> | There should be a companion article "How to answer questions the smart way" - Thanks for being interested in helping me, really - I appreciate the sentiment... |
| 17:43 | <Pert> | ok. i'll shut up then |
| 17:43 | <perlmonkee> | but I'm asking about Xen - not linux distros. |
| 17:44 | <perlmonkee> | I don't want to be an ASS to you (very much) becuase it really is quite nice of you to try and help people, and I'd hate to discourage that. |
| 17:44 | <perlmonkee> | your help just simply doesn't apply. |
| 17:44 | <perlmonkee> | but thanks again, really. |
| 17:44 | <Pert> | 19:54:46 < perlmonkee> how painful is it likely to be to patch, say 2.6.22.8 with Xen? |
| 17:45 | <Pert> | i was just suggesting that you look at one that's already been compiled with xen support |
| 17:45 | <Pert> | or have a look at the source and see how they got the patches to work |
| 17:45 | <Pert> | redhat/d |
| 17:45 | <Pert> | oops |
| 17:46 | <Pert> | RPMs are usually quite good for keeping all their patches seperate, so it should be easy to see what their xen patch looks like |
