Device Driver

Name: Anonymous 2006-01-14 3:30

Can anyone recomend me a good website that teaches how to write device drivers? (either Windows XP or Linux Ubuntu)

Have fun.  Though, to be honest, if you can't figure out how to use Google or MSDN, I *really* hesitate to let any of your code run in *my* kernel mode.

You didn't get the hint, did you?  I thought I kinda' hit you in the face with it.

Google.  Use google.  Google is your friend.

And what the frak are you writing a device driver for anyway?  Gonna do some l33t rootkitting or what?

FYI Linux drivers aren't distro specific since they generally interface with the colonel. Working at such a low level though requires a certain amount of programming experience and understanding of the relationship between hardware and the OS.

Ummmm have you touched linux ever?  You are kidding me with the colonel right?  It was a big joke and you actually know that it is kernel.  Right?

Guess I need to reinstate the <humour> tag. Apparently it's not obvious enough to some people.

seriously is this a machine or a human doing this .

I'm certainly hoping it's a program, otherwise the human is an even bigger looser than the rest of us.

It may very well be a misfiring prog-scraper that he tried to write in C (with embedded JavaScript)

Guess I'm a little late here, but Linux isn't the only operating system that uses a kernel.

Linux is the kernel. GNU is the operating system. That is why it is why everyone calls it GNU/Linux, chum.

I enjoy this necromancy because some of these old threads are good, bamping old pantsu, and also I can't help but read RISE FROM YOUR GRAVE! in King Diamond's voice and I smile every time I see it.

Hurd is the kernel.  GNU is the operating system.  That is why everyone calls it vaporware, friend.

Linux is the kernel. Therefore it is the operating system.
Only idiots listen to the bullshit that Rimmus constantly spouts out his hairy, unclean anus.
And only /g/tards who don't know anything about computers think that applications & utilities = operating system.

Many computer scientists and EE's from the 60's defined an OS as a collection of base software that made the computer useful which included the kernel, compiler, and text editor, and graphic system (among other things). I was an EE of the 80's and I used this definition for OS.

We did little Motorola 6800 schedulers in one class.  A schedular is what I think of as an operating system.

LoseThos has a compiler.  LoseThos is a full-time project.  I have actual experience on a shipped professional OS.  I'm in professional league unlike these amateurs: http://wiki.osdev.org/Projects.  Having my own compiler really separates me from the pack, doesn't it.

This guy thinks he's better than me.

You cannot support all graphics cards.  You cannot do high res graphics without a GPU -- why do you think they make GPU's, are they pointless?

Let me Google that for you:

No. A scheduler is a trivial part of a kernel.

I probably have to repeat that -- "why do they make GPU's?  Are they pointless?"

One more time -- read slowly, "why do they make GPU's?  Are they pointless?"
