Linux 2.6.24-rc5 Kernel Released

Posted by Michael Larabel on December 12, 2007

Back onto the one week RC release cycle, Linus Torvalds has today released the Linux 2.6.24-rc5 kernel. This latest RC kernel doesn't contain any major updates but just addresses a variety of regressions and other small issues. In the 2.6.24-rc5 release announcement, Linus mentioned that the final Linux 2.6.24 kernel will not be out in time for Christmas unless there are more development elves working on wrapping up the regressions.
