Linux After two months of development, Linux 2.6.20 has been released. This release includes two different virtualization implementations: KVM: full-virtualization capabilities using Intel/AMD virtualization extensions and a paravirtualization implementation usable by different hypervisors. Aditionally, 2.6.20 includes PS3 support, a fault injection debugging feature, UDP-lite support, better per-process IO accounting, relative atime, relocatable x86 kernel, some x86 microoptimizations, lockless radix-tree readside, shared pagetables for hugetbl, and many other things. Read the list of changes for details.

And I just spent the evening downloading and compiling the latest release candidate! Thanx Linus & Co for rendering that effort superfluous!

BTW, I didn't get 8.33.6 ATI fglrx 3D drivers to work with RC7. Anyone knows if there is a driver version that works with 2.6.20?

There's a patch for ati-drivers 8.33.6 in Gentoo's portage. Works for me™.
