Hi all.

I've asked this a while back. Is the 2.6 series of kernels ready for
production use (I.E. should I go ahead and upgrade my slackware 9.1
server to 2.6.6)? Back when I asked this, a number of people responded
that they wouldn't go putting 2.6 on a server just yet, and to wait a
while until distributions come out with it.

I know that fedora is 2.6 based, but are other distros? Are there
slackware folks here running 2.6 on production boxes? If I do upgrade
to 2.6.6, what are the pit falls I should watch out for in terms of
slackware packages which I might need in slack 9.1?

I've seen more and more folks on here upgrading to 2.6.6, so I thought
I'd ask this again, and get everyone's impressions the second time
around. Thanks.

Greg
