Linux 2.6.29.2
From: Chris Wright
Date: Mon Apr 27 2009 - 14:41:20 EST
We (the -stable team) are announcing the release of the 2.6.29.2 kernel.
There are a lot of fixes in this release touching all over the tree.
At least a few have possible security impact (e.g. af_rose, agp,
capability fs_mask, splice/ocfs2). As usual, you're encouraged to
upgrade. For details see the short changelog and diffstat below or full
changelog on kernel.org.
I'll be replying to this message with a copy of the patch between
2.6.29.1 and 2.6.29.2.
The updated 2.6.26.y git tree can be found at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.29.y.git
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:

thanks,
