Why is SUSE going to use the 2.6.8 kernel?! The reports on 2.6.8 AREN'T good!!
Have you forgotten that SUSE employs a number of kernel hackers? This isn't the vanilla 2.6.8!
Why not 2.6.7....it was stable?!
And have a vast number of people bashing SUSE because of an "ancient" kernel?
I wouldn't!! STABILITY my friend - that IS what most of us want and MUST have! I don't need grief, like we have now, for example getting XCDRoast to allow users to burn a CD, and getting a number of hardware to work properly. I'm not picking on SUSE, you should know that by now. Fred -- "Running Windows on a Pentium is like getting a Porsche but only being able to drive it in reverse with the handbrake on."
