| dazjorz | oh |
| nanonyme | GumbyBRAIN: defragment your brain, you're messed up |
| GumbyBRAIN | But once you're up to the brain. |
| stuuf | no, i use gentoo kernels, they don't have the 4th number |
| rindolf | 2.6.11.6 is really old. |
| nanonyme | is the current one 2.6.20? |
| Ani-_ | Who cares? As long as it works... |
| nanonyme | or even more |
| Jmax | Ani-_: there was an exploit for 2.6.16 and below |
| Ani-_ | Jmax: remote exploit or local exploit? |
| Jmax | local |
| Ani-_ | Then who cares? :) |
| dazjorz | Linux server 2.6.18-4-486 #1 Mon Mar 26 16:39:10 UTC 2007 i586 GNU/Linux |
| stuuf | heh, you're sure every application you're running has no remote exploits? |
| friedo | burp |
| Ani-_ | stuuf: yes. |
| ofer | Jmax, if it's local you can just run: perl -le 'fork while fork' |
| dazjorz | brb |
| simcop2387 | nanonyme: 2.6.21 IIRC |
| nanonyme | k no gentoo patches for 2.6.20 yet so i wouldn't know :) |
| stuuf | there's a 2.6.20-r6 for gentoo |
| simcop2387 | nanonyme: what do you mean? i've got gentoo-sources-2.6.21 in my portage |
| ofer | GumbyBRAIN, elite |
| GumbyBRAIN | Side effects include severe nausea, headache and internal causes are the elite - the ones who you are. |
| stuuf | the 2.6.20 with suspend2 is masked for some reason |
| nanonyme | simcop2387: it's ~arch, likely |
| simcop2387 | nanonyme: ~arch is irrelavent |
| nanonyme | ok, i misphrased there is one i just won't be upgrading to it yet |
| simcop2387 | stuuf: i use beyond-sources for suspend2, since it includes a number of other patches i like |
| stuuf | hmm, i didn't know about that one |
| Jmax | ofer: yes, but ulimits prevent that |
| simcop2387 | http://iphitus.loudas.com/archck.php theres the beyond page stuuf its mostly geared towards a desktop system it seems but thats what i use though there are patches for later than 2.6.17, don't know whats up with that page http://iphitus.loudas.com/beyond.html ah better page |
| stuuf | built in unionfs would mean one less thing to remerge after an upgrade... |
