I dont understand this kind of support. You are NOT correct ... The latest NON 5.2 kernel is: ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Client/en/os/SRPMS/kernel-2.6.18-53.1.21.el5.src.rpm
this is a new kernel as of today, may 22 compilation dateThe latest 5.2 kernel is: ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Client/en/os/SRPMS/kernel-2.6.18-92.1.1.el5.src.rpm
yes i was warned, however, can they not admit when they are wrong? and because its volunteers (like debian), all the more reason to be professional.As far as being banned on an IRC Channel ... I am sure you were warned first. CentOS is manned by volunteers. If you want to argue with the people who are on IRC after they tell you not to, then you will be banned.
i have been polite for weeks. i finally had a enough of being polite and just being told, 'it will be release when its ready.' that is not a professional answer. is it too much to ask for an update?The CentOS project trusts the judgment of our forum moderators and our IRC ops ... if they ban you then you are banned. We are not a for profit company where you pay us for service and can be disrespectful to our employees. You will instead have to be polite in your disagreements.
i do pay for rhel. i made the mistake of converting to centos. damage is done. on the next major upgrade, i will return to rhel and will not professionally recommend centos either privately,personally, or in the realm of a business. thanks for seeing my side of the issue and not jumping on the elite bandwagon. i am done.If this is a problem, I suggest that you find a paid for service contract where you can be rude to the people with whom you interact.
