not all distros use bleeding edge kernels for stability rasons and for
continuity reasons. The enterprise distros are a good example of this
and many of them are free. They backport security and other patches
back to the older trees and with enterprise distros having a active life
of over 5 years between versions they are becoming more and more
popular. simply willy nilly going to a bleeding edge kernel breaks the
continuity of that distro. Also some of te issue are with even bleeding
edge or "current" distros and using a RC kernel is risky but one you are
certainly free to take. However belittling folks who do not want to
live on the bleeding edge is childish and immature.

For all you guys running a pre 2.6.20 kernel and complaining about

read the first post...
Go here..
www.kernel.org and look to see what the latest release is (currently rc is
21.rc3).. give that a try as there actually is an improvement over the
current .20 stable
DL the kernel and compile it as per the steam thread.. don't do the jiffies
tweak if you are not concerned about the higher FPS...
What is to lose,, a night of actually trying something besides sitting here
and complaining to Alfred that your stuff doesn't work while running
outdated kernels?

problem
Hi,
we have the same problem with our CS Source server. Now it is very
unstable
and lags after an automatic restart until we restart the server. The DOD
Source server is running fine on the same machine.
Best regards

Hi
I have a serious problem since the update.
Several hours ago my 100 tick 18 slot server begun to lag, and very
badly.
The usually 250-496fps drops every few seconds to 10!
But the CPU usage never goes over 10-20%.
There was no problem with it, until the update :(
Restart does not help too.
Its a 2.6.16.27 debian kernel, with 1000Hz kernel.
3.6Ghz P4, 2gigs ram, raids, etc. Nothing else is running on it, just an
apache and a mysql with almost no load.
Can anyone help me?
