kernel-desktop-2.6.22.19-2mdv-1-1mdv2008.0.i586.rpm

Description:

The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz), the core of your
Mandriva Linux operating system. The kernel handles the basic functions
of the operating system: memory allocation, process allocation, device
input and output, etc. This kernel is compiled for desktop use, single or
multiple i686 processor(s)/core(s) and less than 4GB RAM, using HZ_1000,
voluntary preempt, CFS cpu scheduler and cfq i/o scheduler.
This kernel relies on in-kernel smp alternatives to switch between up & smp
mode depending on detected hardware. To force the kernel to boot in single
processor mode, use the "nosmp" boot parameter.
