Linux Kernel 2.6.3 Has Been Released [updated]

justinarthur writes "At 04:36 UTC, Linux kernel version 2.6.3 has been made available. As is typical, downloaders are advised to utilize a mirror upon file availability. There are many changes from version 2.6.2, including recent ALSA patches, XFS fixes, and updates in many other areas." Update: 02/18 14:15 GMT by T : Peter Willis points out that kernel 2.4.25 (changelog) was also released, and writes "Incidentally, a security advisory dated today states there is an exploit in kernels up to 2.4.24 and 2.6.2, but the two releases today don't seem to reflect any changes, so get ready to patch up as soon as a patch pops up. More details on the vulnerability here."

    What the fuck is up?
    Can someone tell me why this comment was modded down to -1 less than 10 seconds after it was posted?

    The same goes for this one here.

    If someone here has a problem with my screen name then tell me. Don't hide behind your parents monitor and try to silence me.

    The comment you linked to doesn't have any moderation on it. The reason why it's at -1 is because your karma is taking a serious hit from your first few posts. After a while, you'll post by default at -1 and will only be allowed 2 posts per day.
