I have used 2.5/2.6 on an Athlon and a Pentium 3 laptop since 2.5.69, and haven't had a single crash or data loss on any of them. > e.g, is older hardware supported (PIIX - since they removed the tuning > option from 2.4 this has been a disaster for me) There is a config option for PIIX. > XFree looks like it has problems No problem with XFree86 here, but I don't use cards without open-source drivers. > XFS and some other (unspecified) file systems have problems No problems here, both these machines use xfs. Should I install today, I would probably go back to ext3 with data journaling. -- Hilsen Harald. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
