Linux Kernel 3.0.7: New graphical configuration utilities and debugging new objects

Reached a new Linux kernel series Linux Kernel 3.0.7. Two years after the previous release of version 2.4.0 of the Linux kernel, Linus Torvalds creator, after considering the trial for several months, said the final version stable Linux Kernel 3.0.8 Stable, with its share of news, errors eradicated and a compatibility with systems up to 32 processors.
The kernel build system is much improved and added new graphical configuration utilities and debugging new objects. Performance has been improved due to a rearrangement of the layers of block and memory management, with two IO schedulers available.
Stresses also better support for USB and FireWire, and the presence of patches of preemptive multitasking, decreasing potential latencies, especially in multimedia applications. Likewise, it has improved the process scheduler, increasing the system stability despite the large number of active processes. Along with this, we have included several tools to determine the behavior of the process scheduler, very grateful.
Another important factor lies in improving the PCI subsystem, which means for most people who work with large servers, you can access all your PCI devices with a faster connection, to which we must add the appropriate support USB 2.0 and many drivers for wireless devices via Bluetooth.
Threading enhancements, improved dump dumps, system calls quicker, framebuffer layer, retrofitting Quota statistics nanoseconds generic VFS changes, enhanced system monitoring, scaling the CPU frequency and many more improvements you'll discover by yourself.
