[linux-audio-user] FC2 2.6.x kernel questions [OT?]

[Barton Bosch]

This may be semi-OT for this list but it does relate somewhat in 
regards to burning CDs and eventually using the 2.6 kernels for low 
latency audio, etc.

My production distro is a Planet CCRMA RH 9 installation.  I also 
have an installation of FC2 that I use for graphics and will 
eventually be migrating to.  For me, using FC2 and the 2.6 kernels 
is edgy enough -- I don't have enough knowledge and experience to be 
much use as a beta tester.

With those caveats in mind, is there a particular 2.6 kernel that 
would be better than either 1) the kernel that was shipped with my 
FC2 disks, or 2) the most recently released kernel (2.6.8-1.521)?

Where can I find more info about the various kernels and other 
updates as they are released?  Does anyone have any advice as to an 
  FC2 update strategy other than running `# yum update` every week 
or so?


Thanks,

Barton
