I am actually looking forward to Debian 7.0 with Linux Kernel 3.x. As we
all know, Debian 6.0.x is still using the old Linux Kernel 2.6.
Kernel 3.x is just a naming marketing strategy, indeed it's 2.6.40.
Anyway, there's a kernel 3.2 available in the backports.

I already have Linux kernel 3.3.0.


When will Debian 7.0 be released?
AFAIK, it will be frozen in ~June, released... nobody knows, that's a
feature.

Frozen in June 2012?

Debian with Linux Kernel 3.x release seems very slow when all the other
Linux distros already have the latest Linux Kernel 3.x. Why do I want
Linux Kernel 3.x? Because I want to play around with Xen virtualization
(dom0 required).
You can go to "www.kernel.org", download the greatest and latest 3.3
(still in devel branch) and compile by yourself using your current kernel
".config" file.

I always go to kernel.org to get my latest Linux kernels. I have already compiled and installed 3.2.11, 3.2.12, 3.2.13, 3.3.0-rc7, and 3.3.0 myself.

Debian developers, please speed up!
Please don't, keep things stable and take your time :-)

I want it fast!



I love Ubuntu and Debian Linux!!!
