For all of the alternative OS users (and there are many who visit this site), you can check out the latest Linux kernel. Linus touts this as being a rarity, because it’s “perfect”. Lots of bugs have been fixed, including AM2 specific ones that I have been waiting for. For bleeding edge users, you can try out the latest ext4 filesystem and see how it stacks up against ext3.
So go get it. It’s one of those rare “perfect” kernels. So if it doesn’t happen to compile with your config (or it does compile, but then does unspeakable acts of perversion with your pet dachshund), you can rest easy knowing that it’s all your own d*mn fault, and you should just fix your evil ways.
