I will do this then. I originally didn't upgrade out of memory
considerations, but meanwhile the mem was upgraded from 32M to 96M, so
I
guess it would be no problem.
Well, not only that (boosting the performance), but using a 2.4 kernel
was a requisite for a PMac 9500/180MP that I had for a few months to
recognize all the PCI slots that it had, while the 2.2 kernel wasn't
able to see everything.
Among other things, this meant that I couldn't use X without changing
how the cards are internally disposed with a 2.2 kernel, while with a
2.4 kernel things would just work.
I would suspect that the same thing would apply to your case.
Hope this helps, Roger...
