        Mmm....this makes less sence every time I read a msg in this
thread...2.2.15-0.7mdk?? there's no such thing in ftp.tux.org nor in
my CD (burned ISO)....there's a bunch of different 2.2.14-15mdk's,
plus the linus-2.2.14-1mdk one I'm running...so...now I'm completely
mixed up...where did that 2.2.15 come from?

Think of the Linux community as a niche economy isolated by its beliefs.  
Kind of like the Amish, except that our religion requires us to use 
_higher_ technology than everyone else.
