And what are those feelings you have heard? Do you have any bugs you have reported for this kernel series?

Here's someone else's comment about having read more than the usual number of bug reports for 2.6.25 on LKML. Also, According to the Kernel Newbies 2.6.25 Page, there seem to be lots of new additions and major revisions, to which I'm a little nervous about upgrading right at the moment without waiting a few weeks or so.

I still don't feel that my question was answered by anyone above. Regardless, I've downloaded 2.6.25.3, and I'll give it a try on my desktop system shortly (after compiling and installing it). If I have trouble with it, then I'll report issues to the LKML.

2.6.24 just felt uncomfortable with all those changes that gone into libata—and as such, the
reports that come trickling in on lkml.
There were some 100 more patches (287) between 2.6.23–2.6.24 than 2.6.22–2.6.23 (138)
2.6.24–2.6.25 (189).
