I put this to my order because I love Condrad Barskis painting style :-) The very same reason why I bought Land of Lisp. I'm a fan of good visual arts, and my cousin Riiko is also a painting artist living in Spain: https://riikosakkinen.com/

This is sometimes useful feature that is not very common but evolution has it :-)

I even have one inbox that requires it (infradead.org).

As always Raymond Chen delivers. This time on why Windows 95 setup needed three stages of operating systems 👇

Question about V4L2: there are these controllers and some events are defined in the core layer (or whatever it is called).

Is it like that they are processed multiple times:

1. Once by the core framework.
2. Once by the drivers that register them.

Or if driver registers an event, does it sort of take ownership of it?

Sorry for not using correct terminology.

Intenet search reminds me more and more of the end of #AltaVista. Even (or especially) when you were searching for something specify search result became more and more polluted. If you were lucky you would find something meaningful on page 5. But quite often you would give up and started playing with exclusion

Very frustrating.

hatch has also the nice feature shared with cargo apparently, i.e. "--fix".

The thing that I hate in #Codeberg: no official merch to buy.

Any ideas how do I bind :nohlsearch in Zed's vim mode to a key?

I'd like to bind it exactly to CTRL+L, just like in my .vimrc for the sake of ubiquitous text editing experience:

Sometimes I feel that I'd like migrate my certificate key some day from the current RSA-4096 to ED-25519.

Can I bless the trust to the new certificate key or do I actually have to fucking meet F2F other kernel maintainers? ;-)

In addition to linux-media, I also subscribed to rust-for-linux for the sake of

1. Learning
2. Tested-by (aka "show me the payload")

Not for nuking Rust per se...

#linux #kernel #rust

Right. fRUSTration. How I never grabbed that albeit I'm a sucker for word plays ;-)

Is CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L1_COMPAT something that I should look forward on using for new V4L2 drivers?

#linux #kernel #media #video

Finally found a Zed theme that I love :-) #zed #editor

The new URL for video-loop.ko:

https://codeberg.org/jarkko/linux-video-loop

Smoke test:

https://codeberg.org/jarkko/video-loop-test

#linux #kernel #media #video #loopback

Two small steps forward with the video loopback driver:

1. Internally use kref + release life-cycle. This is a prequel for anonymous inode.
2. Delete timeout and timeout_image attributes. In the anonymous inode based the user space driver for /dev/videoX is responsible for this.
3. Rename the device as /dev/video_loop.
4. Subscribed to linux-media@vger.kernel.org, as it is always good to start follow the discussion on other patch sets some time before your sending a feature patch set. For instance, some useful gray information might stick to you by accident…

#linux #kernel #media
