Hello,

I posted this question at comp.linux.misc and where told this would be a better place therefore.
I would like to do a internship in the field of the Linux kernel.
Can someone tell me where to find a list of companies (don't matter in which
country) that employ kernel developers?

Stefan

Hello,

  Adding to his question, I am interested in doing a PhD in Operating Systems.
  Would anybody have some information on a similar list of labs and/or Universities
  that host projects related to Linux?
  
  Thanks in advance.

Look at Greg's talk from the last OLS:

I think Greg wrote a paper on this subject, so I've added him to CC in case he 
has the link handy.

Yeah, but my paper didn't really track companies very well.  The lwn.net
article is the best, and below is my version of who did things in
2.6.23.  Note, the lack of a company is not an indicator that they did
nothing, just that I could not easily determine someone worked for them.
I'll try to send out my "who are you working for" emails in a week or so
to see if I can further categorize the "unknowns".

thanks,
