When clicking on a version (e.g. "2.4.27") you can also see which of them are distribution kernels. Kinda shocking that 14% of these machines are not running kernel 2.6 ... Considering how this data is generated it obviously shows only part of the picture, and your survey will hopefully bring data what we could do for making kernel 2.6 more attractive (not meant against your work, but we should aim at bringing users to 2.6). cu Adrian [1] http://counter.li.org/reports/systemstats.php -- "Is there not promise of rain?" Ling Tan asked suddenly out of the darkness. There had been need of rain for many days. "Only a promise," Lao Er said. Pearl S. Buck - Dragon Seed
