Linux 2.6.17.7
From: Greg KH
Date: Mon Jul 24 2006 - 23:44:22 EST
We (the -stable team) are announcing the release of the 2.6.17.7 kernel.
I'll also be replying to this message with a copy of the patch between
2.6.17.6 and 2.6.17.7, as it is small enough to do so.
The updated 2.6.17.y git tree can be found at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.17.y.git
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:
www.kernel.org/git/
thanks,
greg k-h
