the rest

,----[ Quote ]
| Linux 2.6.31 will support USB 3.0, although the corresponding hardware is not 
| yet available. Distributions are to use the new FireWire stack that now 
| offers LAN support. CUSE emulates the Open Sound System via a userspace 
| program. Another new addition is a driver for Acer's Aspire One netbook.   
| 
| Last Friday, Linus Torvalds released the eigth pre-release version of Linux 
| 2.6.31. As the lead developer stressed in the release announcement, it will 
| be the last pre-release version. He is on holiday diving for the next week 
| and hopes to present the 2.6.31 release on the Labor Day US Holiday, which 
| falls on September 7th this year.
