Subject: 2.6.9-mjb1
Date: Sat, 06 Nov 2004 08:18:34 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <214010000.1099757914@[10.10.2.4]> (raw)
The patchset is meant to be pretty stable, not so much a testing ground.
1. Better performance & resource consumption, particularly on larger machines.
2. Diagnosis tools (kgdb, early_printk, etc).
I'd be very interested in feedback from anyone willing to test on any
platform, however large or small.
