Linux 2.6.28-rc7 Kernel Released

Written by Michael Larabel in Linux Kernel on 2 December 2008 at 09:18 PM EST. 1 Comment

Work on the Linux 2.6.28 kernel is quickly winding down and it looks like we may see an official release in the not so distant future. Linux 2.6.28-rc6 was released more than a week ago, but even so, there aren't many changes in the latest kernel release candidate. Linus notes though that there are ACPI, DRM, V4L, and input updates, but overall there's just a lot of small changes. The usual Linus Torvalds release announcement and short change-log can be read at LKML.org.
