Linux 2.4.22 Stable Kernel Released
An anonymous reader writes "Marcelo Tosatti has officially released another stable 2.4 Linux kernel. 2.4.22 was released early this morning and includes a lengthy list of fixes. It follows the last stable kernel in this tree, 2.4.21, by a little over two months."
That feature is still in development. If you really need it, perhaps you should use Windows 2003 until the 2.6 kernel comes out.

If it ain't broke...

...and no popcorn...!
WTF is it with this machine I bought that doesn't give me my popcorn when I give it kernels?!
Ah, forget it. I'll go back to closing and opening Windows and see if it's more likely I'll get some fresh air in the house.
Vos teneo officium eram periculosus ut vos recipero is.
I have a friend who's mouse ended up moving across the screen almost 10 times faster than usual with 2.6-test2.
We joked about the 1000% increase in performance.

I was wondering when someone would get around to this.
WTF is it with this machine I bought that doesn't give me my popcorn when I give it kernels?!
...and my TAB key isn't working either...
Don't see anything in the changelog about removing ugly-ass Unix code claimed by SCO to be their own ... :-)
I wonder if I can tell SCO off because of the kernel panic I am getting with this new release. Btw, I own a SCO License
Hay, don't forget to pay us the small upgrade license fee.
IP law confuses me. I am persuaded slashdot readers who read this sig now legally owe me 699$
Maybe the moderator is a subscriber, and saw your post before you submitted it.
ok here is the short:
;)
Linux = good
BSD = good
NT = bad
proprietary Unix = good but expensive
BeOS = bad
Plam = wtf is plam?
here is a comparison:
Linux VS NT = linux wins
bsd vs nt = bsd wins
anything vs NT = anything wins
bsd vs linux = linux wins
proprietary unix vs linux = linux wins but it's a tight race
bsd vs proprietary unix = bsd wins again a tight race won by price and development model
plam vs anything = again wtf is plam?
*YAWN* come on /.
Da kernel be da damn essential centa' o' some doodad opuh'atin' system, da co'
dat provides basic services 4 all otha' parts o' da damn opuh'atin' system.
Some synonym be nucleus. Some kernel kin be contrasted wit' some shell, da
outermost part o' some opuh'atin' system dat interacts wit' usa' commands.
Kernel an' shell be terms 'esploited mo' frequent-like in Unix an' some kinda'
otha' opuh'atin' systems dan in I-B-fuckin'-M mainframe systems.
Typical-like, some kernel (down low, o' no comparable centa' o' some opuh'atin'
system) includes some interrupt handla' dat handles all requests o' completed
I/O opuh'ashuns dat battle 4 da kernel's services, some schedula' dat
determines which rehabs share da damn kernel's processin' time in whut orda',
an' some supuh'visor dat actual-like gives 'esploit o' da damn doodad t'aich
process when it be scheduled. Some kernel may also include some managa' o' da
damn opuh'atin' system's address spaces in memory o' storage, sharin'
dese-he'ah among all components an' otha' usa's o' da damn kernel's services.
Some kernel's services be requested by otha' parts o' da damn opuh'atin' system
o' by applicashun through some specified set o' rehab interfaces sometimes
known as system calls.
Becuz da code dat makes down da kernel be needed continuous-like, it be
usual-like loaded into doodad storage in some arai dat be protected so's dat it
aint gonna be overlaid wit' otha' less frequent-like 'esploited parts o' da
damn opuh'atin' system.
Da kernel aint t' be confused wit' da damn Basic Input/Output System (down low,
B-I-O-fuckin'-S).
Some kinda' kernels have been developed independent-like 4 'esploit in no
opuh'atin' system dat be hankerin' t'esploit it. Right on! Some well-known
'esample be da damn Mach kernel, developed at Carnegie-Mellon University, an'
current-like 'esploited in some version o' da damn Linux opuh'atin' system 4
Apple's Powermac doodads.
Is this some evil plot by SCO? Why have we slashdotted kernel.org?? OH THE HUMANITY!!
Darl, doing 24 months hard time, runs into Bubba. -- Darl, meet Bubba, he's a 350 pound homosexual dominatrix, and absolute Linux fanatic. He also admins our prison Linux machines, I mean, ADMIN'D our Linux lab. You see, once SCO started charging Linux licenses, the warden ordered Bubba to remove all Linux and only allowed him to use Microsoft products.
It took some time to explain to the government that the "bad guys" already have access to strong encryption
you must mean those damn Canadians
Obscure language nazi!
Bubba can't be a dominatrix in prison, as they don't allow him to cross-dress. Dominatrix is a female-gendered form of dominator.

Linux kernel. 2.4.22 was released early this morning and includes a lengthy list of fixes.
all of which came from SCO's massive Pool of Intellectual Property.
Do you have ESP?
No actually its, Microsoft Works.
