You can download the kernel from http://kernel.org.
It was a worthwhile wait ,it was expected to be out before october,but after all the bug-fixes finally the latest stable kernel is v2.6.
I am waiting for the distros to come out with the kernel.

Yes i aslo see it released on different sites

i am downloading it

I am dowloading the 2.6.0 kernel and hope I will be able to use my "Hauppage TV Tuner Card" of Conextant chipset "cx881".
Can any one tell me is the driver of Hauppage Tv tuner (chipset CX881) included in the new 2.6.0 kernel?
Otherwise I have to throw away my Tv Tuner Card(According to maker it is the prminent piece of hardware).

how long do you think for distro like fedora, suse and mandrake will release the lastest versions of its distro that contain kernel 2.6?

Not to long for Mandrake and SuSE, at least I hope not

Can,t be too sure about Fedora, they are stll busy fixing bugs.

What I'm more interested in is, when thirdparty drivers are going to adopt.

I have one PC with an NVidia card and I use the Atmeldrivers for a USB-Wlan-Adapter. The latter one will soon be working with 2.6 (PCMCIA is already implemented).

How about NVidia?

I know there is a fourth party patch for 2.6 but I don't feel like using it.

Mandrake already has 2.6.0-test kernels in the RPMS.cooker so I would suspect it wont be long before we see Mandrake-10

Hi all!
Any known issues with NForce 2 boards?

Got this tale from ZDNet.

Looks like good news for the datacenter (or datacentre ) type organisations.

Shame they didn't have fuller details.

Oh well.

I merged your thread with this existing one regarding the new kernel.

Regards.

I've been running -test kernels since -test5; right now I'm running 2.6.0. Works great - in six months, 2.6 will be running all over the place

Everything's cool with my Abit-NF/7.
I have an nvidia video card, so I took out all the agpgart stuff and just use the nvidia drivers.

i'm glad to read that. 10x

I hear Fedora Core 2 will have the 2.6.0 kernel. It should released in April.

YES!!! Finally!!

I've been running test11 for about a week and works great! and now here we have 2.6.0 stable versions!!!

here is a shout out to the linux gurus, awesome job

as for heads up about the new kernel, make sure everyone gets rid of ide-scsi emulation (no need to compile into the kernel or as module)
also, remove the line in your bootloader config files for hdx=ide-scsi to ide-cd as described at the bottom of this thread:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...hreadid=125595


also, nvidia's current drivers do work with the 2.6 kernel, you just need to use the patch (don't worry, it is a good patch and works well, nothing to be afraid of)
check this thread for nvidia driver installation:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...hreadid=125381

everyone upgrade asap, you will be satisfied
