(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

In Distrowatch someone wrote:Linus Torvalds, founder and benevolent dictator of the Linux kernel, announced the availability of a new kernel release this past weekend. The new kernel version, 3.5, features a number of important improvements including meta-data checksumming for the ext4 file system which should improve file system integrity, improvements to the "secure computing" sandbox for better security; and several tweaks to networking, which should improve reliability and performance. Perhaps the most interesting new feature is the introduction of Android-style aggressive suspend which would allow the operating system to put the machine to sleep when nothing important is happening. Readers interested in all the details of the Linux 3.5 release can check out the full change log.
