|
| Not sure if I notice any difference with the 2.6.10 kernal, funny thing

| upgrade didn't affect cups printing. I print to a printer connected to
| my desktop, running suse 9.2 stable only.
|
| Also the suse boot screen went away again. I kinda miss the little
| progress bar at the bottom. This happened before (under 2.4) when I used
| an unstable kernal. I just can't remember the fix.. No big deal.. All
| the hardware (DVD burner, wireless network, wireless mouse etc..) seem
| to work great...
Crap that should have been 3.3.9.1
