Anyone planning to try damentz's wonderful Liquorix kernels with siduction? In fact maybe he should be invited here :)

I remember the aptosid devs regarded him as a bit wacked but he's indeed a smart fellow...his kernels work quite well

And the liquorix-kernel can't be included in the iso, since it is not dfsg.

And yes cryptoserve:
linux "3.1-6.towo.1-siduction-amd64" works perfectly here!
... using systemd inspite of default insserv as init.

No not knocking towo's kernels just having choice is nice :)

@towo, not sure what license his kernels are under..but I'm sure he'd have no problem complying with the dfsg if it came down to that

As I appreciate the contribution of highly gifted programmers and hackers somebody who knows him could invite him. I am sure he has more to contribute.
But licensematters, as mentiond my towo have to be kept in mind!

I might ask him that question as to what license his kernels are under

Yes he's quite intelligent and even slh felt threatened by how smart he is

I use the liquorix kernels on my installs that are built from stock Debian.  They are great kernels, but mostly I only use them because I track Debian testing, and except for a few months right after the release of a new stable, they tend to get their kernels long in the tooth.

I'm waiting for my USB to finish copying and then I'll be installing siduction on an old desktop I have around that I'm going to be selling off.

Will have to sometime try the 2 kernels maybe on some of my "problem" hardware on some of my laptops see if one or the other is actually superior.

I don't think so:

yes, right now it's still up to date.  But it will start slowing down with keeping up to date after they hit 3.2.

I included siduction sources.list just to get towo's kernel.
So far, it seems to out perform the liquorix one, at least the way I use linux.  I have a linux host (core2 quad, 8gb ram) and run a Win7 vm guest, configured to use 4 cores and 6gb ram.

I don't see any pregnant pauses with towo's kernel (so far).

Hi ralul,

is your statement a recommendation for a change?
Or is it siduction standard from installation?
Because I migrated to siduction without a complete reinstall (I know that is better), I have insserv operational.

Makes it sense to change? Is it possible to change? And if yes how (just purge and install?)?

Code: [Select]
insserv:
  Installiert: 1.14.0-2.1
  Kandidat:    1.14.0-2.1
  Versionstabelle:
 *** 1.14.0-2.1 0
        500 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ unstable/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
systemd:
  Installiert: (keine)
  Kandidat:    37-1
  Versionstabelle:
     37-1 0
        500 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ unstable/main amd64 Packages

Systemd at this moment is not for the faint at heart and would leave you mostly on your own. On a testbed: yes. productive? no way.
