Hardcore Kernel Literature

Previously, my hard core Linux kernel news has come from free sources like kerneltrap and kernelnewbies. When I started tracking the development kernel releases. I wanted more information about the changes coming and what it meant for my hardware. When kerneltrap is writing regular updates he provides pretty good information. kernelnewbies is another good source for functional changes to the kernel. The human readable changelog is a good look at the kernel in broad strokes. The diff -u section in the LinuxJournal is another broad overview with some discussion of kernel politics thrown in. The disadvantage in reading free sources, blogs is that the author often posts in spurts then goes to sleep again. That’s the nature of blogging. The BrakeBlog was dead for several months before I revived it again.

On the spur of the moment I bought a subscription to lwn.net. I think I’m going to be very happy with it. Reading through this week’s LWN I was pleased with the twenty bucks I spent. I was so inspired that I went to work creating a LWN badge to display on my website. Read LWN Go steal it for your own use I don’t care. If you make a better one let me know.
