Linux Development Kernel 2.5.18 Released

the_real_tigga writes: "Well, the day is almost over, and still today's release of version 2.5.18 of the Linux development kernel tree has not yet hit Slashdot. It is out, the official site is of course kernel.org, but be sure to check your local mirrors (usually www.country.kernel.org). Here is the long Changelog, major changes include suspend-to-RAM, more IDE and VFS fixes, and kbuild. Linux Weekly has the news too, and a summary of the changes."

    Yeah, really... yet another Linux development kernel is out... BFD. Should I post something every time OpenBSD makes a few changes to their kernel?

    I know! I'll submit an article whenever Microsoft releases a hotfix! That's certainly more important news than Linux, whose userbase pales in comparison to Windows'.

    And for some more "News for people who thinks /. is Freshmeat. Stuff that nobody else cares about," NetBSD recently branched off version 1.6. Ooh, ahh.
