Re: Reasons Why Jaunty Will Not Ship With 2.6.29
This is most likely simply a difference between *your* 2.6.29 config and the Ubuntu 2.6.28 one - I expect you compiled in many of the drivers your computer needed, and omitted those you didn't If you used our config, and just tweaked where necessary, I'd be very interested to see comparative bootcharts of your machine with 2.6.28 and 2.6.29 Scott -- Scott James Remnant sc...@canonical.com Hi Scott I shall have ago at producing some boot charts tonight with comparisons between the .28 .29 Kernel. I did not actually produce my own kernal, I used the one from this post here http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=6653881postcount=46 adn used the default 2.6.28 confih which was installed with the updater.

2009/2/11 Null Ack null...@gmail.com Can I please be advised of why Jaunty will not ship with 2.6.29, and that the kernel team has elected to ship on .28? I think that the main reason is time releases of Ubuntu, there is not enough time to wait for 2.6.29, test, a fix bugs. -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss

I think that the main reason is time releases of Ubuntu, there is not enough time to wait for 2.6.29, test, a fix bugs. Hi All Iam new to this kind of discussion thing, only been using Ubuntu for around 9 months and loving it. Not really looked back, and only using Windows for odd things every other month now. Well my opinion on this was that regarding the time frame didn't 2.6.27 get slipped in at the last minute around Late August/Early September time for Intrepid and that did not cause any problems. I have been using the 2.6.29-RC3 Kernel with Januty and found my bootup time was approx 5 seconds quicker then 2.6.28 Kernel at the time, and found no issues at the moment. What other goods reasons are there that we can throw in the pot and put pressue on the developers to consider using this Kernel. There is still over 2 1/2 months to got approx before Jaunty is officially released.

Two of the three machines I have running Intrepid here has kernel/firmware realted issues that are regressions from Hardy. All of these experiences tend to be somewhat hardware specific, so everyone will see it differently.

There may be a couple of months or so till release, however we go into feature freeze a week from today, and from then on, we focus on bug fixing. I don't relish an already busy kernel team's workload if the kernel was to be pushed up to 2.6.29 at this late hour. I don't even relish their workload now, they have enough to contend with as it is.

The above example is but one thing to consider. While you are always Free to use your own kernel, if you do, you should be cognizant of the potential ripple in userspace requirements. Not to mention other kernelspace - userspace bumps like DVB, and the possible breakage of proprietary video drivers in some instances.
