KLive - Let the kernel devs know what kernel you run.

http://klive.cpushare.com/

interesting thing. Already theres plenty of archck users, you can see it up the top.

To install it, is simple

pacman -S twisted

download http://klive.cpushare.com/klive.tac and save it to anywhere. I used /etc/

add

twistd -oy /etc/klive.tac

to your /etc/rc.local, replacing the path to it to the appropriate path and it will run on every boot, submitting your kernel's details and givng the kernel devs an idea of whats out there.

Lets see if we can boost ArchCK's numbers

Does it work through a proxy? It owns no configuration for proxy usage.

I would assume that twisted would respect the standard environmental variables. I think it is http_proxy or HTTP_PROXY.

Just chuck them in the lines before it in rc.local.

Re: KLive - Let the kernel devs know what kernel you run.

I know it's an old thread.  I just forgot to post earlier.
By using iphitus's command, you get a twistd.pid and twistd.log files in the / directory. Although they don't harm anything, they were "bothering" me as they were not where they should. So, I'm using this command instead :

(cd /var/run ;twistd -l /var/log/twistd.log -oy /etc/klive.tac &> /dev/null)
