Nov 18, 2007, 22:00 (0 Talkback[s])
"Linux creator Linus Torvalds announced the third release
candidate for the upcoming 2.6.24 kernel summarizing, 'hmmm.. Lots
of small fixes, some cleanups, and a few things like the cris
updates that aren't really either, but which won't affect any
normal user, and will hopefully make it easier to sync up in the
future. Network driver fixes, some IDE and infiniband updates, some
late cpufreq updates, and a hwmon update.' He continued:
"'On the architecture side, in addition to the afore-mentioned
cris updates, there are some sh, arm, powerpc and mips updates, and
also one final x86 unification cleanup (and I really mean it--the
rest can wait until after 2.6.24, but with this one the x86
configuration really is fairly merged, and both i386 and x86_64 are
really just special cases of the 'x86' architecture in the
configurator)...'"
