the kernel tree contains the stable drm, there should be no-known issues in it :-), the development tree is in CVS, linux-core is the new style drm and this is hopefully going to be merged to the kernel rsn... > Is the CVS linux-2.6 directory considered 'dead', > then? It seems stable enough. How stable is code in > linux-core? in my mind linux-2.6 and others are dead wood, future features in the main drm should happen in linux-core, driver features are usually added to both trees for ppl running 2.4 but CVS should be more unstable than kernel tree...
