Kernel 2.6 has a number of improvements. Responsiveness on the desktop seems to be much better, the framebuffer code has been rewritten, the Makefile scheme has changed, the scalability is better, ALSA (which is what I think you heard about) audio support is available right in the kernel, LSM (security modules) have been added. There are always a lot of changes between stable kernel trees, so this email has nowhere near all the changes in it.
