New Tool to Track Kernel Testing Time

mu22le writes "Andrea Arcangeli has created a new tool, 'klive', to automatically track the amount of testing that each kernel gets before release. According to Kernel Traffic "There was some discussion [on making it a kernel config option] that public perception might put this in the "spyware" category", but still the ability to track a kernel usage and reliability would be valuable to both developers and users."

  1. vixie cron doesn't like the way it installs... by sednet · · Score: 3, Informative

    if you download and install it as of 10am PST today, its going to try and install a cron job that begins:
    -*/10 * * * * ps x | grep...
    which vixie cron (and presumably others) rejects as invalid. i just changed it to run every 10 minutes like:
    */10 * * * * ps x | grep...
