Hi Eric, im running cvs since 14th Feb. quite stable on my home laptop ( well, some days before, there was this funny thing with the slabcache which caused a nice deadlock on shutdown ). I use the cvs kernels since ... well, years ... and they are mostly stable, but it is always a good idea to have a working kernel bootable. At the moment it is still 2.6.24-rcX, the guys at SGI seem to be very busy, so nobody did the update to 2.6.24 ( or 2.6.25-rc2 ).
