Linux creator Linus Torvalds announced the official release of the 2.6.22 kernel: 'It's out there now (or at least in the process of mirroring out — if you don't see everything, give it a bit of time).' The previous stable kernel, 2.6.21, was released a little over two months ago. New features in the 2.6.22 kernel include a SLUB allocator which replaces the slab allocator, a new wireless stack, a new Firewire stack, and support for the Blackfin architecture. Source-level changes can be tracked via the gitweb interface to Linus' kernel tree.

I'm using a recent (16-6-2007) broadcom standard firmware 2.4 Beta, and it is based on kernel 2.4.34. How come this one is so far behind? Is there something in the hardware that prevents it from using newer kernels or what is the reason? _________________ Buffalo WHR-G54S, Generic Broadcom V2.4 Beta 2007-08-15, SD/MMC mod(2 GByte).
