I'm seeing a lot of regressions with the 2.6.29 update to F-10 here. GDM doesn't always log me in (it hangs after the password is entered, 'top' doesn't show any stuck process), and when it did I had Xorg eat 100% CPU with little useful info in the log files.

What is the reasoning for pushing a 2.6.29 kernel to Fedora 10 (a stable release about half-way its lifetime) ? Was there something fundamentally wrong with the 2.6.27.x kernel ? Why introduce some much instability ?

I can understand there are people maybe waiting for new hardware support brought by this kernel, but woudn't they be better off with F-11 anyways?



I've been using koji builds of 2.6.29 on my machine here for what feels like months... The first reason I upgraded was to get a webcam working, then I found some issues with USB hadn't gone away, one more update and now I have a working webcam, and usb transfers at 7-15M/s instead of 600K and bringing my machine to a standstill for hours. When did .29 hit fedora 10 stable? I could stop using koji builds... ;)
