Package: linux-2.6
Severity: wishlist

Please provide a variant of the kernel with small config changes targeting 
desktop use.

It can be argued that we don't want a proliferation of kernel flavors again,
after the recent great work to get the Debian Linux packages under control.
However, server vs. desktop is a key division, and having Debian provide
a more responsive desktop experience out of the box will be worth the split.

Bug #311185 argued, perhaps rightly, that CONFIG_PREEMPT is unstable.
However, the more conservative CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY is available as an
alternative.
