"Hundreds of new and improved drivers significantly improve
hardware support in the 2.6.34 kernel.
"In his release email for Linux 2.6.34-rc7 last weekend, Linus
Torvalds indicated that version 2.6.34 of the Linux kernel will be
released soon. The following article describes the advancements in
terms of drivers and their infrastructure and concludes our "Coming
in 2.6.34" mini series about the most important new features of
Linux 2.6.34. The most important changes in the areas of network
support, file systems, storage subsystem, graphics hardware and
architecture as well as virtualisation were discussed in parts one,
two, three and four of the series, along with the drivers
associated with these kernel areas."
