下列步驟描述如何更新 Red Hat Enterprise Linux 作業系統和驅動程式。

Upgrading Fedora Using Yum

Although upgrades with yum have been tested and work, live upgrades are not recommended by the Fedora Project. If you are not prepared to resolve issues on your own if things break, you should probably use the recommend installation methods instead. With a typical installation, this method usually works well, but it can break third-party packages not available in the Fedora repositories. Please search the mailing list archives first if you run into problems.

The recommended installation method is detailed in the following guide:

Compiling a Custom Kernel

This guide is how I custom compiled my kernel. My installation of FC4 can be found on my Personal Fedora Core 4 Installation Guide. Similar versions of this guide can be found for FC3, FC2. This page involves technical and involved processes. Keep in mind this works for me, so take care in doing proper backups to critical files whenever trying something.

在 Linux 下用戶空間與內核空間數據交換的方式，第 1 部分: 內核啟動參數、模塊參數與sysfs、sysctl、系統調用和netlink

從 2.4 到 2.6：Linux 內核可裝載模塊機制的改變對設備驅動的影響

從 2.4 到 2.6，Linux 內核在可裝載模塊機制、設備模型、一些核心 API 等方面發生較大改變，設備驅動開發人員面臨著將驅動從 2.4 移植到 2.6 內核，或是使驅動同時支持2.4 與 2.6 內核的任務。站在設備驅動開發人員的角度，驅動由一個或幾個外部可加載內核模塊組成，本文針對 2.6 內核裡模塊機制的改變對編寫設備驅動程序的影響，從內核模塊的編譯、裝載時的版本檢查、初始化與退出、模塊使用計數、輸出內核符號、命令行輸入參數、許可 證聲明等方面比較了 2.4 與 2.6 內核的區別；並總結了使設備驅動同時支持 2.4 與 2.6 內核的一系列模板。

Print to a PDF file via a Debian server

A step by step How-to that lets you print from a win box to pdf file on a Debian server

After transferring from RedHat to Debian, we found we had a need to print to file. This note assumes you have found out how to configure SAMBA and only is concerned with the extras to set up a print to PDF print server. Our SAMBA setup is set to run workgroups as we don't want to M$ize anything and are moving to a pure Debian/Linux environment.

Make sure all the packages you need are installed. I highly recommend learning to use wajig if you are doing any server work as it has a unified interface that the apt and dpkg commands lack. See my notes on wajig.

簡介

1991 年的十月，有一個名為 Linus Torvalds 的芬蘭赫爾辛基的大學生在comp.os.minix 這個新聞群組上發表了這樣一封內容不怎麼起眼的 POST：
