Linus Announces the 2.6.25 Linux Kernel

LinuxWatch writes "'It's been long promised, but there it is now,' began Linux creator Linus Torvalds, announcing the 2.6.25 Linux kernel. He continued, 'special thanks to Ingo who found and fixed a nasty-looking regression that turned out to not be a regression at all, but an old bug that just had not been triggering as reliably before. That said, that was just the last particular regression fix I was holding things up for, and it's not like there weren't a lot of other fixes too, they just didn't end up being the final things that triggered my particular worries.' There were numerous changes in this revision of the OS. The origins of some of those fixes is detailed in Heise's brief history of this kernel update."

CORAL CACHE

[chk89]

Is it SO MUCH to ask that someone caches the links on coral cache before they get slashdotted? Just append .nyud.net to the hostname.

Please don't. The proxy I have to use blocks nyud.net.

Trigger?

[buravirgil]

i hear the term 'trigger' from as educated circles as the Supreme Court

Trigger is a horse
Trigger is a causal construct
Trigger has dubious connotation

Precipitate is a correlation of a field and a force

Forces are expressions of an interruption of a
field's equilibrium

many fields can be contained, many cannot
many forces are introduced, many are arrived by
a stress around a contained field

a "trigger' is either directly linked or "acts" from a balance of links

a trigger is a node and behaves to a prioritized
link or balances input from many

either heirarchically prioritized or given equity

the variable of a trigger is clock timing...

how many times around a value will be "seen" and by what order
