[opensuse] 2.6.27 kernel for 11.0?
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/ilya_41/openSUSE_11.0/i586/ has these. Anyone know reasons for or against trying to use any of them on a production server? My problem is https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=406035 which is marked fixed, but for 11.1, not 11.0. For the reasons listed in the thread http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse/2008-12/msg01969.html I'd rather not be forced into 11.1 if possible. -- "Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it."

Install it with rpm -ihv and see whether it works - if not, go back to the old one. rpm -i keeps both installed ;) I used for some time the 11.1 kernel (from the 11.1 repository) on 11.0 (until October) and that worked fine but changes have been done afterwards as well.

Can anyone tell why the above bug's owner claims its fix amounts to a new feature preventing fix's inclusion in 11.0 updates?
but for 11.1, not 11.0. For the reasons listed in the thread http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse/2008-12/msg01969.html I'd rather not be forced into 11.1 if possible.

I installed .27 on an old ICH4 P4 GX260 PATA host I use for testing. Its 11.0 partition is on hda21, and so using piix legacy driver. After a while it locked hard while in runlevel 3. Then I installed .27 on a newer ICH7 P4 RAID1 SATA host "big31" using libata (not my new ICH8 server, but similar in being almost as new). So far big31 hasn't done the same. Can anyone look in the boot.msg & messages logs in http://fm.no-ip.com/tmp/SUSE/110/ and tell me if the lockup might have been due to the .27 kernel rather than piix driver or hardware failure? -- "Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it."
