You mean the 2.4 kernel, right? Yeah, I understand that. The problem
isn't what I know Fedora to be. The problem is what others on this
list
seem to think it should be or want it to be or how they want us to use
it. Does this kind of badgering happen on the Debian community lists?
No, I mean Gnome.
The 2.6 kernel is expected to be sable by the time FC2 is released. For development (formerly rawhide) the 2.6.0 test kernels are being pushed so hardware vendors can write drivers. But the timeline for kernel says 2.6.x should be stable by the time FC2 is release. As always, there's a leap of faith involved on the part of the fedora team to hop onto that train, but acording to the various roadmaps for gnome and kernel, kernel will be done first. Gnome 2.6 will probably be in FC3.
