Merhaba,
Cekirdek mesajlarinin Turkceye cevrilmesini ben de absele istigal olarak
gormekteyim. Bu konuda olasi girisimlerin abesligini LKML FAQ'dan
yaptigim alinti daha acik ifade ediyor:
Why don't we internationalise kernel messages?
* (REG) There are several reasons why this should not be done:
o It would bloat the kernel sources
o It would drastically increase the cost of maintaining the
kernel message database
o Kernel message output would slow down
o English is the language in which the kernel sources are
written, and thus is the language in which kernel messages are
written. Developers cannot be expected to provide translations
o Bug reports should be submitted in English, and that
includes kernel messages. If kernel messages were to be output
in some other language, most developers could not help in
fixing bugs
o Translation can be performed in user-space, there is no need
to change the kernel
o It would bloat the kernel sources
Finally, it will not be done. No core developer supports this.
Neither does Linus. Don't even ask.
