Re: [eug-lug]Wonderful World of Linux 2.6
Slackware includes 2.6 in 9.1 but it defaults to 2.4. You can select 2.6 at some point during the install. I'm waiting for 2.6.1 then my Folding points are going to drop way off while all my servers get the new kernel.

That's test9. The latest 2.6 kernel is at test9 status = ) Does anyone know the schedule, off-hand?

Until it is ready, it is not ready. Here's a more informative quote from LWN. http://lwn.net/Articles/55955/ Kernel release status The current development kernel is 2.6.0-test9, released[1] by Linus on October 25. It consists almost entirely of important fixes, of course, but Linus also threw in Jeff Garzik's libata driver. As always, the long-format changlog[2] has the details. It seems a real 2.6.0 release could be getting close: If this works out, then I'll submit -test10 to Andrew Morton, and if he takes it we'll probably have a real 2.6.0 after a final shakedown.
