BTW, I just compiled a really lean 2.4.21 vanilla with the Con Kolivas ck3 patches he just posted (the base patch, and all the performance patches, and supermount). I like it at least as much as the MDK multimedia kernel I had been using (which is better than stock). I've had success with 2.5.67 through 2.5.72, except for one baffling show stopper. I can either enable serial drivers in xconfig, and get modem functions, but then have various serious problems in file managers, or disable serial, and all the problems go away- kernel works great, but I have no modem use. After months of countless configs and hair pulling, I'm still stumped. Where's that 2.5.xx you mentioned- I guess it works, or they wouldn't post it? I'd like to see that .config file!
