Hello Slugadonia!
Thursday morning, I downloaded and compiled the 2.6.2 kernel source on
my experimental box. My experimental box runs Debian Sid, Pentium III
etc. etc. blah blah.
That said, I was wondering if anyone else is running the shiny new
"stable" kernel. I do not notice much difference, workstation wise,
from the 2.4.24 kernel. Open Office 1.1 still opens as slow as it did
with 2.4.24. I use Gnome 2.4 with Sawfish and it still runs as smooth as
ever, but what appears to me to be the same speed. The only physical
difference I have noticed is the xscreensaver, "Sphere" runs about 10
times faster than before.
One good thing, I must note about this switch over, is I haven't had
any Oopses, yet, like I did when I switched from 2.2 to 2.4.
What have you guys seen?
The Logan
