No. It's a development series and still prone to problems. Subscribe
to the linux-kernel list and listen to what people are saying about
it. (1.3.49 is the latest one).
>Or even has v1.3 officially released
They have always been "official". Officially development, that is.
There's been no word from Linus yet about when he thinks a stable
version 1.4.x series will become available. But when they do arrive,
THAT'S the time to upgrade.
1.2.13 is very, very stable. Unless you want a flakey experimental
kernel that will OOPS on occasions, stick with it for now.
Cheers
Tony
