2.4.9 Kernel Released
Justin writes: "Linus is off to Finland for a week or so and released 2.4.9. " Here is the Changelog for those of you interested. Yeah, it's probably gonna be a little crowded for a bit. Please post mirrors in the comments.
I can only lament that this version was never released
Ah well. Probably out there under a different name ;)

I really hate the "I really hate slashdot is not freshmeat" posts
As the 2.4.x kernel series has been headed to higher and higher revision (x) numbers, I've been wondering what will occur when those numbers are exhausted. Seeing as how we're at 2.4.9, will all the next revisions be 2.4.9.x? It's probably way too early for 2.6. --Alex
Friends come and go, but enemies accumulate.
2.4.9 already!!
first try, the lame-assed lameness filter thought that the numers were capital letters. maybe with all these lowere case letters the lameness filter will stop being so lame. so here ya go, a bunch of iis machines inflicted by code red and vulnerable, these are right from the server logs. these assholes deserve whatever they get, they knew about this for a couple weeks and still haven't bothered to fix their machines. have fun, kiddies, here's some iis boxes waiting to be owned. 12.10.163.3 12.10.194.185 12.10.194.186 12.10.194.212 12.10.194.216 12.10.194.245 12.10.196.90 12.10.196.91

unce upon a time, long time ago, you could look at freshmeat.net everyday
heck, you could take the daily e-mails. now it's just too big, too many apps.
i think they should do a similar thing to slashdot:
allow registered users to view only certain categories on the front page.
let's say i am interested in audio apps, and that's what i usually look at at freshmeat. i would like to be able to opt-out from all the other categories, except audio-apps.
yes, it's a silly idea, but i think it may work
--- d'oh
... but that's what I think every time I see a new kernel version story. These things are popped out often enough. Shouldn't they be reserved for -major- revisions and interesting new feature additions?
When 2.4 was released, that was a big deal. When ReiserFS got included, that was a big deal. 2.4.9? Not such a bid deal.
