For 13 years, @KernelRecipes@fosstodon.org has been the technical conference on the #Linux #kernel in France.

We invited @ennael@fosstodon.org , the event’s founder, to tell the story of Kernel Recipes—from the idea that emerged around a barbecue to its 2026 edition—as well as what makes this conference different from the others!

👉️️ [projets-libres.org/en/…](https://www.projets-libres.org/en/podcast/73-kernel-recipes-the-conference/projets-libres.org/en/…)

The 2026 edition will take place from September 21 to 23, 2026.

Mein Linux-Mint fühlt sich in letzter Zeit schneller an …

Läuft jetzt mit Kernel 7.0.0-30 - könnte vielleicht daran liegen. Denn von den Anwendungen her (+ Docker) ist eher noch einiges dazu gekommen …

«Kernel.org — 98 Prozent des Linux-Kernel-Archiv-Traffics sind wohl keine Menschen:
Bots scrapen die gesamte Sammlung an Kernel-Commits und -Forks. Schließlich ist der Linux-Kernel eine exzellente Quelle menschlicher Arbeit.»

Weshalb erinnern.mich die KI’s an den Bots seit je her? Die sind also so intelligent, dass die den menschlichen Arbeit schamlos beklauen (ich weiss Linux ist Open Source aber trotzdem)

#LinusTorvalds managed to fix a really nasty #Linux #kernel Intel GPU driver bug he was plagued with[1] using #AI, which “enormously helped by doing much of the grunt-work” – but he needed persistence and multiple debug patches as well, as the AI multiple times had told him to give up and just report the bug.

To quote git.kernel.org/torvalds/…:

“”And this was a debug session from hell, enormously helped by an AI doing much of the grunt-work.

I’d like to call it my tireless helper, but the AI several times stated flat out that this was impossible and unsolvable and that we should just write a report about it.

I suspect those things have been trained by people who may not be quite as stubborn as I am.

But while the AI was ready to give up several times, it did keep adding debug code and analyzing it faithfully when I pushed. So credit where credit is due and I let the AI write the commit message above.

This is basically a one-liner fixing a bogus “round_up()” to a “round_down()”, but there were 24 patches adding more and more debug information to this, and 18 kernel boot to finally narrow it down to this.””
