Kernel 4.4 for RPI2 - duno - 17th Jan, 2016 08:46 PM

I've seen on git,

https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbian-sources-kernel/tree/rpi-4.4.y

that there is now also a branch called 4.4.y.

Do I need to build my own Kernel or is there an "unstable" for the sources.list to try this Kernel?

Found it under staging:

Code:
http://apt.xbian.org/pool/staging/rpi2-jessie/l/
linux-headers-bcm2836_4.4.0+-1453379683_armhf.deb
linux-image-bcm2836_4.4.0+-1453379683_armhf.deb

Code:
sudo bash

Code:
vim /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbian.list
Code:
deb mirror://apt.xbian.org/mirror.txt      staging  main rpi2-jessie

Code:
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
Code:
reboot

"uname -a"

4.4.0+ #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jan 21 13:19:25 CET 2016 armv7l GNU/Linux

But, journalctl is still not working on xbian.

Code:
sudo journalctl
Code:
No journal files were found.

Any idea?
Huh

@duno No systemd journal is running because of using upstart

ups, yes pstree told me init ...

But there is also an

Code:
systemd-logind
systemd-udevd
and
Code:
upstart-file-br
upstart-udev-br

I do not know much about upstart, only, that Ubuntu was using it for a short time.

Most Systems I use are using SystemV or systemd and the default logger is rsyslogd.

What is the default logger in xbian and how to configure it to make logfiles like

Code:
/var/log/syslog
/var/log/dmesg
/var/log/auth.log
/var/log/mail.xyz
etc. ?
Huh

Ah,
