anyway, i talked to andrew morton, and he suggests that it is better
to go for 2.5.x ...
i have been running 2.5 since patchlevel 68, and it has been working
great for me. i have made no comparative measurements with 2.4+lowlat,
but it "feels" good and is very stable - even most of linus' bitkeeper
snapshots have been ok.
disclaimer: mine is a scsi-only system...
i'd encourage people to try 2.5 to iron out audio-specific problems
before we go into 2.6-test and the developers get nervous...
I'd second that. I've been running 2.5 on two boxes for awhile.
One is a VIA C3 (via82xx) the other is a PIII. (ice1712)
Both IDE, both working fine on 2.5.x (Haven't finished sorting
out the PIII audio yet, however - total Lack of Free Time)
The 2.5 kernel is moving into the 'must-fix' stage, so now is
the time to start running it....and send in those bug reports..
(
http://bugme.osdl.org is a good place to cc: 2.5 reports,btw )
