Linux Kernel 2.6.0-test10 Released

Posted by michael on from the any-day-now dept.

antrix angler writes "Linus Torvalds released the 2.6.0-test10 Linux kernel today, tentatively calling it the "stoned beaver" release. Linus plans to hand the kernel over to Andrew Morton in a few weeks, and then it will be up to Andrew to decide when we see the final 2.6.0 stable kernel. Download it from a mirror."

    I thought that since some big corporations like IBM and Novell are picking up Linux, things would get a little more professional.

    I guess I was wrong.

    Come on, who's going to explain to his boss that he's going to try out an operating system called "Stoned Beaver"?

      Same professionalism that brought us MS Windows and crushed SGI and Sun no doubt.

    is it fun living in such a mysterious world? try reporting a fucking bug, you lazy asshole, it's a TEST kernel! you 'hope' indeed... where do you get off advising potential testers to stay away from problems that need testing and fixing? way to miss the whole point.

    Have they included support for the new fangled things, like mice and cd-roms?

    I hope not, that might hurt its stability!

    I would agree that linux could never make a viable desktop environment for most users.
