Announcing the release of the kernel-ml-3.0.43-1.el5.elrepo packages into the EL5 elrepo-kernel repository:
http://elrepo.org/tiki/kernel-ml The following files are currently syncing to the mirrors: x86 kernel-ml-3.0.43-1.el5.elrepo.i686.rpm kernel-ml-devel-3.0.43-1.el5.elrepo.i686.rpm kernel-ml-doc-3.0.43-1.el5.elrepo.noarch.rpm kernel-ml-headers-3.0.43-1.el5.elrepo.i386.rpm kernel-ml-PAE-3.0.43-1.el5.elrepo.i686.rpm kernel-ml-PAE-devel-3.0.43-1.el5.elrepo.i686.rpm x86_64 kernel-ml-3.0.43-1.el5.elrepo.x86_64.rpm kernel-ml-devel-3.0.43-1.el5.elrepo.x86_64.rpm kernel-ml-doc-3.0.43-1.el5.elrepo.noarch.rpm kernel-ml-headers-3.0.43-1.el5.elrepo.x86_64.rpm src kernel-ml-3.0.43-1.el5.elrepo.src.rpm We provide these kernels for hardware testing in an effort to identify new/updated drivers which can then be targeted for backporting as kmod packages. Meanwhile, these kernels may provide interim relief to people with non-functional hardware. We stress that we consider such kernels as a last resort for those who are unable to get their hardware working using the RHEL-5 kernel with supplementary kmod packages. These packages are provided "As-Is" with no implied warranty or support. Using the kernel-ml may expose your system to security, performance and/or data corruption issues. Since timely updates may not be available from the ELRepo Project, the end user has the ultimate responsibility for deciding whether to continue using the kernel-ml packages in regular service. The packages are intentionally named kernel-ml so as not to conflict with the RHEL-5 kernels and, as such, they may be installed and updated alongside the regular kernel. The kernel configuration is based upon a default RHEL-5 configuration with added functionality enabled as appropriate. If a bug is found when using these kernels, the end user is encouraged to report it upstream to the Linux Kernel Bug Tracker [1] and, for our reference, to the ELRepo bug tracker [2]. By taking such action, the reporter will be assisting the kernel developers, Red Hat and the Open Source Community as a whole. Thank you, The ELRepo Team.
