I have tried this on several test machines yesterday and 6 production
machines today and it is working fine thus far.
(Xen kernel, 32 and 64 bit, plus regular kernel on my laptop, 64 bit).
The same here. We have these running on dozens of systems now,
including several Xen hosts, Xen[U] paravirt VMs, PCs, servers, worker
nodes. No laptops, though. No problems encountered. Rollout to a few
hundred more systems is on its way.

Hello,
The new security update for SL5 has been built and is currently
being tested.
I plan on releasing this kernel tomorrow. But I also know that
alot of people want/need it as soon a possible, so I have put it
into the general testing area so people can install it if they want.
It is best to remove SL_fix_bad_km before updating your kernel.
Removing SL_fix_bad_km will not put the bad kernel modules back.
I have also updated SL_fix_bad_km so that it is empty and doesn't
have it's script, but it is really best to remove it.
To test or update
SL5
-------
If you have SL_fix_bad_km installed
rpm -e SL_fix_bad_km
fi
yum --enablerepo=sl-testing update kernel\*
or you can download rpm's by hand at
