Time for a Linux Bug-Fixing Cycle

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Monday May 8, 2006 @11:31PM from the breath-of-fresh-air dept.

AlanS2002 writes "As reported here on Slashdot last week, there are some people who are concerned that the Linux Kernel is slowly getting buggier with the new development cycle. Now, according to Linux.com (Also owned by VA) Linus Torvalds has thrown his two cents in, saying that while there are some concerns, it is not as bad as some might have thought from the various reporting. However he says that the 2.6 Kernel could probably do with a breather to get people to calm down a bit."

...is good for the gander.

You're a Microsoft shill! Windows (XP/2003) does crash all the time because all the device drivers are buggy. If you think it doesn't state your verifiable, FUD free source please. Otherwise take your Windows FUD elsewhere.
