Linux 2.6.25 Kernel (Finally) Released

Written by Michael Larabel in Linux Kernel on 17 April 2008 at 07:23 AM EDT. 12 Comments

It's coming a bit late but Linus Torvalds had released the Linux 2.6.25 kernel late last night. The Linux 2.6.25 kernel introduces new EXT4 file-system improvements, ACPI thermal regulation, LatencyTOP kernel support, enhanced process memory usage management, and real-time group scheduling are among the major additions. The Linux 2.6.25 kernel also has the initial ATI R500 DRM support. The release announcement can be read at LKML.org. It's now time to start getting excited for the next Linux release... the Linux 2.6.26 kernel!
