Yep thats the case. Thats why I asked for UP aka uni-processor kernels ;)

Thats why I wanted to get modules for the secure kernel too. For multimedia I 
guess its just installing the mm-sources and compile the same package against 
it ? Haven't done it yet.

Maybe mm has highmem integrated ? Don't know. I think it would be worth to 
have the highmem patch in normal kernel, as it is not utopic to have 1 Gig of 
ram in a desktop with current prices.

Thanks for the replies, I wanted to make sure to dont miss a kernel with a 
rebuild of my package.
