Linux 2.6.24-rc4
,----[ Quote ]
| Anyway, there aren't a lot of exciting changes here, but there's still a
| _lot_ more churn than I really hoped for at the -rc4 stage. Blackfin, MIPS
| and Power do stand out in the diffstats, but ARM and x86 got some updates
| too.

| And of course, there's Linux - which already runs on hand-held devices
| without much fuss. That'll be in a much stronger position if and when the x86
| architecture becomes a potent part of portable life.
