Phoronix: The Linux 2.6.37 Kernel Nears Completion

With it being just over a week since the release of Linux 2.6.37-rc5, Linus Torvalds has this evening put out Linux 2.6.37-rc7. This seventh release candidate to the Linux 2.6.37 kernel is just packing regression fixes as it nears completion...

The URL for the poulsbo driver is misleading as always, since it provides absolutely no graphics support, just backlighting...

2.6.36 was the first time I ever had to roll-back.

CPU core usage reported as "NaN%", shortly followed by a very abrupt freeze.

I heard of 2.6.36.2 ati regressions in some games, but since 2.6.37 rc5 i think the new kernel is in good enough shape. I run it on 4 systems now. Only a netbook with realtek n chipset has much better wlan using .32 kernel...
