I think Fedora were right to merge it, and I think it was proper to merge it into the upstream kernel. But I also think the large size of that userbase should have been respected by "doing the right thing" here, and that means not making it so hard for Fedora users to use upstream kernels out of the box. Making the "sandbox" claim cuts both ways Alan. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
