Linux Kernel 2.5.19 Released

Posted by michael on from the recompile-while-watching-the-world-cup dept.

The Pi-Guy writes "It's that time again, yep, another kernel update - 2.5.19 is out there, including lots of drivers ported to the new API, and lots of ia64 and PPC32 fixes! Grab it from your local Kernel.org mirror, or if you're feeling mean, you can grab it directly from kernel.org here. The changelog is also at kernel.org."

    Dude, she told you she lives "next door." I know that many slashdot geeks shy away from personal contact, but you may find walking one house over much more effective than using the phone.
