This one"feels" good so far. It boots my small system to 23mb, with just htop.
in x , I use 31, which is 5 less than the 3.14.0

Looking in htop, It seems to do a better job of using the (both) cores more evenly than the older kernels?

Yes, it is a slightly tweaked 13.5 alpha/dwm setup.
I would think jwm would be close to the same?

anti, do you know if the 3.14 kernel has the new haswell-chromebook modules included?

d_o - I'm not sure which modules are needed, but these are included.

CONFIG_CHROME_PLATFORMS=y
CONFIG_CHROMEOS_LAPTOP=m
CONFIG_CHROMEOS_PSTORE=m

I've got the 3.14.1 kernel on both my Core2Quad and my Athlon XP, runs great on both, but can't even find it in the repos from my Pentium II. The 3.14.0 won't boot on the PII; haven't looked for 3.13. I'll try to test 3.14.2 in the next couple days.

Wait, should I use the antix kernels, or the gnu-antix, on older machines? I've only tried the ones without gnu in the name since 3.11.5; all my reports of working or not working on my Athlon XP and Pentium II laptop are specific to those.
