Linux Beta Kernel 2.5.16 Out

Posted by michael on from the living-on-the-edge dept.

dipfan writes "The latest beta version of the Linux kernel 2.5.16 is out, with some comments by Linus here, who was kept 'personally somewhat busy' by 'the interesting Intel SMP-P4 TLB corruption bug, which ends up being due to some very funky asynchronous speculative TLB fill logic'. Woo hoo. Mirrors, etc." We haven't been keeping up with the 2.5.x series, but a slow Sunday is a good excuse to catch up.

    When I click the Slashdot banner in the top left of the page, I want to go back to the Slashdot main page, not the page of whatever 'section' I'm in (developers, apple, whatever.slashdot.com).

    Fix it now, motherfuckers!
