Linux Kernel 2.6.0-test10 Released

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."

Your boss would probably be more interested why you were running a test kernel on his hardware, rather than what code name it had!

Thanks for that tip about renicing the X server. It made a huge improvement for me (using 2.6.0-test9).

For reference here's how I fixed this, on my Debian machine: I edited /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config and removed completely the line which sets nice_value.

If you don't want to restart your X server to make the change have effect, then you can instead do:

renice 0 PID

where PID is the process ID of the X server.

Rich.
