Linux 2.6.24-rc4 Kernel Released

Posted by Michael Larabel on December 04, 2007

Due to the holidays, Linus Torvalds was a bit late in pushing out the Linux 2.6.24-rc4 kernel, but it's now been released. The Linux 2.6.24-rc4 kernel has a few architecture updates (including x86), minor ACPI changes, driver updates (USB, IDE, SCSI, network, etc), and last but not least some file-system updates. The Linux 2.6.24-rc4 kernel release announcement can be read at Kernel Trap.
