Linux 3.11 Released
hypnosec writes "Linus Torvalds has just announced the release of Linux 3.11 as anticipated. Torvalds notes that the final version doesn't bring in a lot more than what is already present in the rc7, but it does include fixes — most of them in networking, file systems, and audio."
Thank you for being a friend
Traveled down the road and back again
Your heart is true, you're a pal and a cosmonaut.
And if you threw a party
Invited everyone you knew
You would see the biggest gift would be from me
And the card attached would say, thank you for being a friend.
That's what I want to know. Also, how many floppies?
Linux for Workgroups 3.11
There are 2 kinds of people in this world: Those who write in decimal and those who don't
I'm mad as hell that they didn't release version 4!!!1!
Wait. What day is it? Apple's release isn't for 8 days. Sorry... wrong product.
The CB App. What's your 20?
When Linus dies, he will be embalmed like Stalin and kept in a glass case for all the acolytes to file past... Eventually, like Stalin, most of his flesh will be replaced with wax. Indeed, secretly, Madame Tussaud will be asked to create a Torvald corpse to replace the real body, which will be shipped to a laboratory where technicians will attempt to reanimate Linus. This will be done with secret procedures gleaned from hacking Scientology's servers on how they did the same thing to Tom Cruise.
Beautiful disaster /in all seriousness, it's all good Linux 3.11
Flyin' down the street again
I tried to keep up
You wore me out and left me ate up
Now I wish you all the luck
You're a butterfly in the wind without a care
A pretty train crash to me and I can't care
I do I don't whatever
Will be forked: Linux 95 and Linux nt 3
Silence is a state of mime.
going to make it fake device hotter and more useless slower more wires. won't matter I'm ahead breaking the next one obsolete skills of the chain throw away break your capacity again, changes the connectors, bury you in more wires, useless converters, change a bunch more things here and there broadcast cancer into your body . you are not authorized to do that . Heaters for all! bake toxics to your brain
* Kernel panic when I set my sleeping Thinkpad on my desk and plug in USB hub, displayport and power.
* Bluetooth audio freaking out pretty much anytime
* As soon as desktop apps start to push into swap memory, system freezes in endless swap loop (great way to wear out my SSD).
* Any time the system is taxed more than 70%, mouse pointer gets jumpy
Android would be a similar mess if Google had not laid down the law as to what kernel changes were necessary for mobile.
Still a long way to go to Linux 95.
"Fuck you," he added.
If you're going to post Linux release announcements, remember to link the Kernel Newbies page, since they document the big changes.

You obviously don't know what you're doing, and it's your fault for choosing junk, uncommon hardware. BTW, real men use a PS/2 mouse rather than new fangled USB thing. The cursor stays responsive in swap hell when it doesn't have to go through a USB stack.
I should probably go take a closer look. I've been disappointed so many times, though, that my expectations are not high.
I'm sure someone has already said this, but the fact that this is Linux 3.11 means that the next version will be Linux NT.
You are welcome on my lawn.
the takeover of Nokia by Microsoft - remember the N9* line of devices running Linux back in the days ? (slightly off topic, but still vaguely related to Linux)
This is article number 3.11 on /. about this release. I am starting to think its a bit like Voyager leaving the Solar System - left, no wait, ok left, no wait, yes it has left....
Next big one will be the PI release which will be completely irrational and instead of a binary system, will have infinite digits.
What is really fantastic is the extended support for pro usb devices from Roland and Yamaha. It should be very possible to create a really effective cheap laptop DAW running Linux tuned for RT audio without having to mess install drivers the way you do with Windows. Not that you could not use these devices in the past it was just difficult to set them up correctly because alsa had trouble working with most Roland mixers and the like the only way to do it sometimes was using a stupid setup that was flaky as hell.
I hope this kernel version is adopted quickly by the Ubuntu Studio guys, but if necessary I will roll my own so I can use Roland usb devices with my laptop!

Without reading any of the previous comments, let me add a unique joke about the version numbering and the fact that we're talking about linux...... :D
IS THIS THE YEAR OF LINUX FOR THE WORKGROUPS

Most people do not realize that Linux even exists, yet without it, the internet will be a costly place. The common would not be able to have any money left if he/she bought a computer and software. But today, it's possible to not go bankrupt and still buy a nice computer. Now, I know that many people, me included, regards Mac OS X as one of the greatest and most innovative operating systems ever made, but Linux is still much, much more important. Without it, computers would be toys for the sort of people who spend their weekends with other people who constantly brag about their new Range Rover or new mansion, not for PEOPLE, like you and me.
