And if it wasn't clear to the non-2.5-development people out there, yes you _should_ also test this code out even before the freeze. The IDE layer
shouldn't be all that scary any more, and while there are still silly things like trivially non-compiling setups etc, it's generally a good idea
to try things out as widely as possible before it's getting too late to complain about things..
I also would love to test on my laptop (especially because of ACPI), but I have / on LVM :-(
Any info, when I might be able to get a 2.5 kernel running ?
Thanks,
Markus

I got this reply to my recent, similar note:

I can't test 2.5 on this box, as /home, /opt, /tmp, /usr, /var and swap are all in LVM1.
Use EVMS CVS with 2.5, and enable the LVM support it includes.
Works great for me under 2.5.38.
You just have to remember to mount (or set up devfsd/whatever to create the right symlinks for you) /dev/evms/lvm/<whatever> instead of /dev/<whatever>.
