Ciao a tutti,
il mio costante 'nomadismo' Ivrea/Milano/Roma
mi ha costretto a cancellare molte mail percio' non so se ne avete gia'
parlato...

Linus ha rilasciato un il primo kernel di test della serie 2.6.x,
se potete, provatelo e postate i problemi ;-)

Ecco l'annuncio:

Ok,
 the naming should be familiar - it's the same deal as with 2.4.0.

One difference is that while 2.4.0 took about 7 months from the pre1 to=20
the final release, I hope (and believe) that we have fewer issues facing

us in the current 2.6.0. But very obviously there are going to be a
few test-releases before the real thing.

The point of the test versions is to make more people realize that they
need testing and get some straggling developers realizing that it's too
late to worry about the next big feature. I'm hoping that Linux vendors
will start offering the test kernels as installation alternatives, and
do things like make upgrade internal machines, so that when the real
2.6.0 does happen, we're all set.

Have fun,
