2.6.9
mmm! Time for another fresh compiled kernel just like Mom used to make! On the 18th, Kernel 2.6.9 was released. I am currently running Kernel 2.6.8. Rather than downloading a patch file, I for some reason, would rather just download the whole thing and be forced to repeat the config. Hey, I’m weird… If you haven’t ever configured a linux Kernel, It is kind of boring, though not so bad when you use one of the Graphical Config Tools. I was running Mandrake 10.0 before I compiled 2.6.8. Traces of Mandrake still remain, but most I have since replaced most of my software packages with distro-neutral things. Now, if all goes well, my next post will be from a fresh 2.6.9 kernel :). I need to try and compile KDE now. Last time I attempted, I had some Freak compile Error with Library qt-mt :(…But I am determined to Rid my system of every last bit of mandrake, not that I have anything against it…
