(O'Reilly). It covers 2.6.11. The Linux Device Drivers book is on Bookshare as well. If I remember correctly, Understanding the Linux Kernel explains kernel internals, rather than the procedures involved in kernel programming. In other words, Understanding the Linux Kernel deals with theory, and Linux Device Drivers deals with practice. That's how it looked to me, at least. I suspect that the two texts complement each other very well. -- Chris
