I've been craving getting my hands on a kernel running 2.6.37 (big power saving bugfix in there) with the awesome AUTOGROUP patch applied. I was about to start down the path of building my own kernel from kernel.org with all of the ubuntu patches and fixes applied. A daunting task... I don't really have time for that!
I came across the Liquorix repo, and decided to give it a try. They are a "distro replacement kernel" repo. They take the latest and greatest patches and apply them to the kernel to make an ultimate replacement kernel for desktop use.
So far, results have been good. My only complaint currently is that cpu frequency scaling was disabled in this kernel for most modules, in turn causing my core2 duo proc not to scale. Regardless, the battery life has been better than it was on 2.6.35 with frequency scaling enabled. I'll be rebuilding the liquorix kernel with the frequency scaling reenabled soon.
