Hi!


It's being uploaded right now, the git tree is already up-to-date, and by the time this hits the mailing list the mirroring of the tar-ball will hopefully be done too.

And since Jeff wrote me a shortlog script for git, the easist way to tell
what's new since -rc5 is to just do the shortlog and diffstat output. Network drivers, USB and CPU-freq stand out.

And the good news is that people do seem to have taken my rumblings about calming down for 2.6.12 seriously. Let's hope that pans out, and I can release that one asap.. But give this a good beating first, and holler (again, if you must) about any issues you have,



Pavel Machek:
fix jumpy mouse cursor on console


This one was from Dmitry, and git logs know that:

[PATCH] fix jumpy mouse cursor on console

Do not send empty events to gpm. (Keyboards are assumed to have scroll
wheel these days, that makes them part-mouse. That means typing on
keyboard generates empty mouse events).

...perhaps shortlog script needs some updating?
