It is cloudy and foggy here today -- I did not see my shadow, and
will not be crawling back into my hole for 6 weeks. ;-)

a/kernel-firmware-20120202git-noarch-1.txz: Upgraded.
       There were some reports of a failing checksum on the .asc (which
       did verify, so the package was good). So, we'll replace it with
       a new build to make sure that it syncs out.

$(fortune) just obtained logging in to stamp the Changelog, finally:
       "You single-handedly fought your way into this hopeless mess."
Well, we'll work on rectifying that situation. :-) Sorry about the
lack of updates... everything here blew up all at once, it seemed, but
equipment, upstream targets, and reality all seem to be settling down
enough to get these updates out and have them be an actual improvement
over what's already up. Hope to have more soon. Cheers!

Hey folks! Have a few overdue updates to the toolchain. This has all been
built and rebuild (and upgraded) far too many times IMHO to wait around yet
again to get 3.2.1 in place and bump some compiler deps to get ARM working...
what was that about the echo $(fortune -m "goal of Computer Science") ?
Anyway, please test and report problems and we'll have another round here
shortly.

       "Change #2912 (see CHANGES) exposed a latent bug in the DNS message
       processing code that could allow certain UPDATE requests to crash

       These are the main configuration changes from the 2.6.37.6 kernel in 13.37:
       BLK_DEV_LOOP y -> m
       HIGHMEM4G y -> n
       HIGHMEM64G n -> y
       LOG_BUF_SHIFT 15 -> 18
       M686 y -> n
       MPENTIUMIII n -> y
       MOUSE_PS2_ELANTECH n -> y
       And, compared with the 2.6.38.4 kernel in 13.37/testing:
       LOG_BUF_SHIFT 15 -> 18
       M686 y -> n
       MPENTIUMIII n -> y
       PREEMPT_NONE y -> n
       PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY n -> y
       SCHED_AUTOGROUP y -> n
       It remains to be seen where the PREEMPT_* options will settle in the future.
       SCHED_AUTOGROUP still seems sketchy to me, and might be behind some odd
       clockskew issues. And, thanks to Carl Wenninger for reporting that the
       LOG_BUF_SHIFT setting was less than the kernel defaults and was leading to
       a few missing lines at the beginning of 'dmesg' output.

Slackware 13.37 x86 stable is released!

Thanks to everyone who pitched in on this release: the Slackware team,
the folks producing upstream code, and linuxquestions.org for providing
a great forum for collaboration and testing.

The ISOs are off to be replicated, a 6 CD-ROM 32-bit set and a dual-sided
32-bit/64-bit x86/x86_64 DVD. Please consider supporting the Slackware
project by picking up a copy from store.slackware.com. We're taking
pre-orders now, and offer a discount if you sign up for a subscription.

As always, thanks to the Slackware community for testing, suggestions,
and feedback. :-)

Have fun!
