Linux Kernel 2.6.21 has been announced. Linus writes: "So the big change during 2.6.21 is all the timer changes to support a tickless system (and even with ticks, more varied time sources). Thanks (when it no longer broke for lots of people ;) go to Thomas Gleixner and Ingo Molnar and a cadre of testers and coders." More info here and here.

This isn't Slashdot. In my opinion we should continue to keep the OSnews comments filled with intelligent on-topic conversation. That means no stupid joke posts.

Opinions mean nothing when the mods of OSNews constantly allow such one liner jokes on all of their news stories. Sorry, but that's how it is here.
