Ah yes, that is true, because the pre-test versions include the patch.

Haaaa, they are actually ahead of Linus himself:
$ finger @finger.kernel.org
[pub.all.kernel.org]
The latest linux-next version of the Linux kernel is:         next-20091111
The latest snapshot 2.6 version of the Linux kernel is:       2.6.32-rc6-git4
The latest mainline 2.6 version of the Linux kernel is:       2.6.32-rc6
...


So you see, 2.6.32 has not been released by now ... those Ubuntu people,
they have even invented time machines!

Best wishes

Norbert

Death, taxes and lost data.
Guess which has occurred.
