Kernels

In Funtoo Linux x86-64bit, debian-sources is our official kernel, with debian-sources-lts also fully supported. Why Debian?

One of the goals of Funtoo Linux is to provide a system that is ready for use in a production server environment. Debian-sources is used by many people, and thus receives updates related to system stability that other kernels may not always receive. debian-sources-lts is akin to using a RHEL kernel, but is more current. It also allows us to use Debian's kernel configurations, which are maintained for us by the Debian project, and enable all hardware as kernel modules. This allows us to pre-build a kernel that works for everyone, which greatly reduces the complexity of a Funtoo install, without having to perform the tremendous amount of work of maintaining our own kernel. For kernels, there is strength in numbers. The more people that are using the kernel, the more issues are found, and the more problems are fixed. In the past, Funtoo has even offered Red Hat Enterprise Linux kernels, though this was primarily done because we were using OpenVZ containers in production and this was the only supported kernel for OpenVZ.

Может статься так, что есть ядро, которому вы лично отдаёте предпочтение. И в идеальном мире мы бы поддерживали для вас наше собственные конфигурацию и ядро Funtoo. Но сейчас debian-sources отличное ядро общего назначения почти для всех пользователей, как пользователей десктопов, так и серверов. Более продвинутые пользователи могут использовать любое ядро, которое они предпочитают, но тогда они берут на себя ответственность за решение любых проблем, связанных с этим выбором.

our official debian-sources kernel, so it will recognize the hardware supported by Funtoo

There may be a kernel that you personally prefer over Debian's kernel, and in an ideal world we would maintain our own Funtoo kernel and kernel configuration for you. But at this time, debian-sources happens to be an excellent general-purpose kernel for nearly all users, both desktop and server, and the more advanced users are free to use whatever kernel they prefer, but then take responsibility for dealing with any issues related to that choice.
