> In my mind, 2.6.32 would be qualified as mostly recent but how many
linux machines already run that kernel?
> A year ago, the linux world probably had far less than 1% of machines
with that kernel (that was 40 days after that version release).
I agree. My wife's system runs 2.6.20 and there is really no need to
upgrade. At work, we are running CentOS 2.6.18-194.26.1.el5. Quantum is
running 2.6.18, anduin 2.6.27.4, and one other system I administer
2.6.9-89.0.16.EL.
The nice thing about Linux is that you are the only one to decide that you
need an upgrade. LFS is pretty much on the leading edge, but once it's
built, there is very little external pressure to upgrade.
