Yes I did.  I've downloaded the kernel-2.6.5 May 18, 2004 tar file.  I have to admit I 
don't know what to do with this?   Is this kernel source or executables???

To the person who was having lcs problems with 2.6. Did you see this on the latest 
code drop on Developerworks?

Description:lcs: LCS interface cannot be initialized.
Symptom:System hangs during startup when initializing a LCS interface.
Problem:When IP multicast addresses are registered, the lcs card's lock was used for 
synchronization. The scope of this lock is too large.
Solution:Don't use card->lock. Introduced card->ipm_lock to synchronize multicast 
lists.
Problem-ID:-

Description:lcs: net_device reference counting problem.
Symptom:Trying to do an rmmod lcs or ungrouping an lcs device results in a hanging 
session with messages "waiting for ... to become free" displayed.
Problem:An in_dev_put was missing in multicast address list handling.
Solution:Added the missing in_dev_put.
Problem-ID:-

Description:lcs: null-pointer dereference failure after unsuccessful set_online.
Symptom:If setting an LCS card online fails, the next try to set the card online 
results in a null-pointer dereference.
Problem:Card's IO buffers are freed if lcs_detect returns an error.
Solution:Do not call lcs_cleanup_card in case of errors in lcs_new_device. This allows 
for trying to set an LCS card online multiple times. lcs_cleanup_card is called in 
lcs_remove_device which is sufficient for freeing allocated memory.
