Lots of stable kernel updates
Lots of stable kernel updates
Back on Wednesday, Greg Kroah-Hartman started a
new stable update review with this note: "Ok, I've been slacking
on the -stable front for a bit here, and didn't realize how far behind I've
gotten. Everyone has been sending patches in, which is great, but now we
are facing a HUGE 114 patch release.
" As a way of making life
easier for reviewers, he split those patches into several distinct chunks,
each of which has now come out as a stable release. So we have 2.6.23.2 (core kernel changes),
2.6.23.3 (architecture-specific fixes),
2.6.23.4 (networking),
2.6.23.5 (network drivers),
2.6.23.6 (other drivers),
2.6.23.7 (filesystems), and
2.6.23.8 (security fixes - but note that
there are security-related fixes in the other updates too).
For good measure, 2.6.22.13 was also released with (only) security fixes.
