Re: new local kernel hole

["Casey Boone" <ophidian_snake@hotmail.com>]

yes, i did rtfa, however it did not answer my question.  the article 
specifically mentions the 2.6.5 kernel that shipped with fc2, but not the 
2.6.6 based release i just apt-get upgraded to over the weekend.

all i know for certain about the new fc2 kernel release is that it is close 
to 2.6.7-rc3, but i am not sure if this particular problem is patched 
against on this new kernel release from rh/fc.  there are some sites i 
cannot get to from here at work.
