I just reverted a new production machine from the initial install of SuSE-2.4.0 to SuSE-2.2.18 and then updated to SuSE-2.2.19. Too much did not work. When I have time and a stable machine, I will try again to inch up the 2.4 series.
I don't mean to argue, Jeffrey, but... 2.4.0? as in zero?
Note: I have SuSE 7.1 and 2.4.2 is the latest SuSE kernel available for it.
Not so: see ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/7.1/kernel/ That's where I got the 2.4.16 for the machines I upgraded at work (also SuSE 7.1). I'm running it on 7.2 at home.
Calling it a stable production release does not make it one. The 2.4 series has been troublesome.
Controversial, yes. Were some releases bad? Yes! But SuSE's 2.4.16 is golden. -- ======================================================= Glenn Holmer (gholmer@ameritech.net) ------------------------------------------------------- Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn.
