Lennart Poettering Takes To Battling Systemd Myths

There are many gaps in this list:
1. Systemd IS LENNARTWARE. It's made by Lennart Poettering, so, it's satanic, it will break your bones and your house.
2. Systemd doesn't support audio hardware acceleration. It does audio software mixing... wait... was it PulseAudio?
3. Systemd is PulseAudio. See 1.

Unless youre one of those guys that get angry over KMS in which case...really, get over it. KMS works the best, you get the best performance. The only downside to KMS is graphics drivers can cause a kernel crash. But those stability issues should hopefully be sorted out by the open source nature of the drivers. These aren't closed-source blobs that we can't fix problems with. If there's a crash or problem we CAN fix them.
An approach closer to a micro-kernel regarding the drivers would seem better in my opinion at least. And yes, I've gotten multiple kernel panics/crashes with at least nouveau lately ..
The micro-kernel part I'm talking about is kind of like Windows handles it. It would probably need more changes than just the kernel though, to do the graphics driver part as well though(being able to reload the driver without [basically] rebooting, since it seems Xorg will crash anyway, so all apps will too).

Also, if someone creates multiple projects which end up being picked up for the default configuration of most bigger distributions because it works better than the alternatives chances are, you're not more intelligent than him.

So yes.
Gentoo and Debian have OpenRC & sysV respectively.
Ubuntu and its derivatives use Upstart
Everyone else...systemd.

I don't think he is smart enough to know the difference between myth and fact.... In his mind if he thinks it then its fact and if you disagree then its myth.... So anything that you disagree with he is going to try and debunk as a myth.
And I don't know why people keep saying that you can build udev by itself.. You can't you have to build the whole thing and then pick out the udev bits.Last edited by duby229; 27 January 2013, 08:51 PM.

Lennart Poettering LOL...
Listening to all the Linux kiddies crying over the clusterfuck that is Linux the development process and architecture thanks to incompetent clowns like Lennart Poettering is absolutely hilarious.
So glad I dumped Linux for a real Unix system like FreeBSD.

"My recommendation for distros who want udev without the rest of systemd
is to build systemd normally and just pick the files you are interested
in from "make install"" -- Lennart Poettering
Arrogant does not begin to describe this attitude.
