Package: linux-2.6 Severity: wishlist Please provide a variant of the kernel with small config changes targeting desktop use. It can be argued that we don't want a proliferation of kernel flavors again, after the recent great work to get the Debian Linux packages under control. However, server vs. desktop is a key division, and having Debian provide a more responsive desktop experience out of the box will be worth the split. Bug #311185 argued, perhaps rightly, that CONFIG_PREEMPT is unstable. However, the more conservative CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY is available as an alternative.
