Uum, well yes and no, i explaned it in rather a misinterpretable term.
I meant 2.0.xx is the stable kernel version, and 2.2.xx are now considered
to be of the same quality, but 2.3.xx are to be avoided unless one knows
what one is doing because they are development kernels.
I have been lying on my back here in bed for one week now, so i think i must
appolagise for the enormous amount of typos, and possably misleading
information, of which is _not_ intended, i read my replys two and sometimes
3 times, but still i seem to get things wrong, valium is strong stuff.
But i do keep taking the tablets, ;-).
