Donating: Out we not be more understanding on the list?
by IT2 Stuart Blake Tener, USNR 09 Dec '09

List members, I am not sure if it is just I, but there seem to be a prevalent amount of elitism on this list, and as such I think this is a good time to make note of it in the light of working to accept donations. It will hopefully be instructive to the some several folks (not all of course, but a select segment) of people on this list that are regularly curt, abrupt, condescending, and dismissive of those asking queries of the list to take stock of the fact that their alienating effect is long term and not soon forgotten. Surely, this will impact one's choice to donate. Thus, if the greater CentOS community is going to try to accept donations from those that see extremely righteous value in their work, why spoil that point of view by proving inarguably a contrarian outlook by treating people on this list dismissively? I have no objection to elitism, just noting that sometimes it is better to be a non-elitist with donations, that an elitist with less donations. Just a word to those that think they are wise, but really need to become wise. V/R, Stuart

Donating?

Earlier today, a forum thread was started by "Sirlurkalot" with the above subject header. [1] The OP posted the following: [quote] I was very happy to make the annual donation, but the option appears to have disappeared. Am I missing something ? I see it says 'Policy being reviewed' but that was back in August. [/quote] Would one of the CentOS devs please respond to it. Russ, I'm thinking of you. ;-) Could you please find the time? Alan.

S3 (Suspend to Disk) with XEN

Hi All, I have a 5.4 box and testing xen 3.4 on kernel-xen-2.6.18-164.6.1.el5. As you know, there are no enough configuration to do "Suspend to Disk" of the .config of the kernel-xen-2.6.18-164.6.1.el5. # Power management options (ACPI, APM) # CONFIG_PM=y Then, I tied to get the kernel-2.6.18-164.6.1.el5.src. rpm, installed that. #pwd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.18/linux-2.6.18.i686 #cp configs/kernel-2.6.18-i686-xen.config .config #make menuconfig Power management options (ACPI, APM) ---> ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) Support ---> │ │ │ │ CPU Frequency scaling ---> │ │ There are no menu which likes "Legacy Power Management API". How can I add the options to enable the Supend to Disk? Yukio
