[LAU] Kernel 2.6.39

[Ralf Mardorf]

Hi,

could there be any disadvantages for averaged desktop users, server
usage etc., if the kernel 2.6.39 is build as PREEMPT kernel?

Today I installed the kernel from the repositories of a major Distro:

$ uname -a
Linux debian 2.6.39-2-amd64 #1 SMP Wed Jun 8 11:01:04 UTC 2011 x86_64
GNU/Linux

Some time ago I build the kernel myself:

$ uname -a
Linux debian 2.6.39.1 #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Jun 7 01:40:05 CEST 2011 x86_64
GNU/Linux

I'm asking, because I want to know, if it would be reasonable to appeal,
that major distros should build it as PREEMPT kernel.

Regards,

Ralf
