Ladies and Gentlemen,
would anyone around be interested in attending a workshop on basics of finding and debugging (and eventually fixing) common issues with Linux kernel?
Topics I'd initially cover would include leveraging in-kernel debugging facilities, techniques for capturing debug output from various crashes, understanding the captured data, and modifying, building and loading the altered kernel code with more debugging code or an actual fix.
Basically the only requirement would be knowing some C.
Thank you Lubo
what a great idea!
i should brush up on my C coding skills!
i think someone (maybe me) should convert the lectures into the wiki page or something alike!

Hi,
is possible to attend even if I'm not member of b42? I'm interested.
Thanks.

I guess you meant "b48" :)
No problem, I'd say. Basically the only constraint would be size of the place. I don't think that would be a problem though; despite there's not much room in hackerspace I don't think the attendance would be too big. And even if it were I think we'd find a solution.
I was initially not sure about potential interest, but at this point it seems big enough already.
Therefore I'll go ahead and prepare materials as time permits. The actual workshop will likely take place some time in the second half of February and will be announced in advance on this list.
Regards, Lubo
Thanks.
Peter

It seems to me that trendy's workshop's proved to be a rather good idea so I've decided to go ahead with this one.
There's some rough version of the slides on the wiki now so that you can see whether the outline lies within your area of interest. I'll update it as time permits. Please let me know if you have any suggestions for improvements.
I've also added some date/time suggestions and would be very thankful if you could edit the wiki page with your time preference (even if any time is fine for you).
Here's the wiki page: http://wiki.base48.cz/Kernel_debugging_essentials_workshop
Have a wonderful weekend everyone! Lubo

Thank you for your votes. I've now converted the page into an event and set final date/time to Wednesday February 19th, 20:00:

Love, Lubo
for those eager to learn C: i find this (work in progress) book very helpful http://c.learncodethehardway.org/book/
excerption: "The C programming language's only failing is giving you access to what is really there, and telling you the cold hard raw truth. C gives you the red pill. C pulls the curtain back to show you the wizard. C is truth."
