    What is trim?

    Yes it is implemented in Kernel, but will it work with default install or do SSD users have to hack a bunch of stuff to get it to work?

    Trim needs to be implemented at the OS level, not just at the kernel level.

    Really? I was under the impression Karmic is going to offer trim for small form factor devices and those are one of the ways its being developed.
