Linux 2.6.17.12

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We (the -stable team) are announcing the release of the 2.6.17.12 kernel.

I'll also be replying to this message with a copy of the patch between
2.6.17.11 and 2.6.17.12, as it is small enough to do so.

The updated 2.6.17.y git tree can be found at:
 	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.17.y.git
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:
	www.kernel.org/git/

thanks,

greg k-h
