Anybody flirted with the new stuff.

From what I saw briefly on the kernel mailing-list the developers are quite happy with it. It shouldnt take as long as 2.4 to stabilize.

Oops I missed that thread. Thanks Martin.

I have a laptop and its running 2.4.24. Planning to upgrade to 2.6.2. Before that I want to use all the devices in my system.

More comments please

Fedora Core 2 Test 1 was released yesterday, it includes the 2.6.1 kernel along with Gnome 2.5 and KDE 3.2. I just got done installing it in VM-Ware and it came up ok except for the network card which I'm trying to fix..
