Well I am glad to see that Nigel and Denis are both very motivated to help
the openMosix team finish the porting and testing to the 2.6 kernel :)

More seriously, I guess we are all frustrated because Moshe et al promised it
to be ready 'any moment now' I-can't-even-remember-how-many-years-ago.  Too
many. But that's where it's at.

On one of the openmosix-general list, Tony Travis reported on Jan 11 that he
managed to build a matching 2.4 for Ubuntu 6.06 LTS. That may be an option
for some.  2.6 is sorely needed also for some newer hd interface and what
have you.  But wishing along doesn't make it happen, I'm afraid.
