Yeah, you can call me IDIOT for not knowing this (!:) but have you ever checked the Solaris bug database, assuming whoever files bugs there and accepts them, both understand what you say above? Tell me if all those bugs which I refer to below in reply to Cyril are fixed but they forgot to mark them so. > What Linux kernel do most shops run in production? > The way I see it, many > people change their kernel on Linux at the same pace > they change their > underwear.

As if you took ability tests for the Linux kernel developers and are stamping on their inabilities. Excellent confidence in other people's inabilities without knowing who they are and what they can do. BTW on the same level it can be said that Solaris will never run on embedded devices and 16 architectures. And Linux shops run RHELx , SLESx where they are supported and they don't change kernel versions daily. You seem to be thinking that only enthusiasts run Linux. > Many shops have been running Solaris for more than a > decade, while Linux > wasn't very usable a decade ago. > > -- > > Alan DuBoff - Sun Microsystems > Solaris x86 Engineering > > > _______________________________________________ > opensolaris-discuss mailing list > opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org > This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
