Anonymous Reader writes “KernelTrap reports that David Weinehall has released the 2.0.40 stable Linux kernel, calling it the “Moss-covered Tortoise”. It earned this name by being released over 3 years after its predecessor, 2.0.39. Those still using the 2.0 kernel are recommended to upgrade for numerous reasons, including fixes to local exploits and remote information leaks. View the changelog and download the new kernel from a kernel.org mirror.”
