Rami Rosen on IPv6 in Linux

Tuxology team November 10th, 2008

Last Thursday Rami Rosen, a Computer Science graduate of The Technion Israel Institute of Technology in Haifa, Israel and a Linux kernel programmer for a networking startup, gave an excellent talk about IPv6 and it’s implementation in the Linux kernel at monthly the Herzlinux meeting.

For those of our reader which were absent, fear not! not only are the slides for the lecture available here, Rami posted an excellent article based on the lecture on LinuxDevices.com.

Thanks you Rami and we look forward to hosting you again in Herzelinux club meeting as well as here.

A new lecture: Crash N’ Burn

Tuxology team June 30th, 2008

We’ve just added a brand new tutorial to the lectures section on the site, entitled: “Crash and burn: Writing Linux application fault handlers“. Check out the full description, slides and example code on the lecture page.

Or, if you’d rather see our very own Gilad Ben-Yossef present the tutorial in front of a live audience, you’re welcome to attend one of the following venues:

Hope to see you there!

Updates

Tuxology team June 18th, 2008

Hi there,

We just added a new section to the site: lectures, where we’ll post the slides of technical lectures given at various conferences, events and panels. Already posted are the slides for two lectures: one about different approaches to real time with Linux and another about Open Source virtualization solutions, so go check them out.

Also in the news, slides for both the Advanced Embedded Linux course and the Linux Internals course have been posted.

In addition, slides and syllabus for a new course, Linux Network Internals, which is still in development, has been posted and we’d be very glad to receive your feedback and suggestions.

And as a desert, we’ve added the events from the Haifux meeting calender to the schedule section on the site. Got any other calender we think we should be tracking? let us know.

Have a great day,
The Tuxology Team
