It's not the standard 2.4.18 package ..

.. gives more details.

To cut a long story short, the Vaio has some quirks. A guy in Japan took 
the Kondara 2.1 (kernel 2.4.18) installation and added some patches to 
make it work with the U1. He built a kernel and all the drivers, and 
then packaged them all up in an RPM.

So, I installed Kondara, and then installed his RPM over the top of the 
stock install. And then installed 2 more RPMs with the new header and 
source files.

I don't have any reason to believe that he patched the USB drivers .. so 
I *assume* they're fairly stock.

(If you have a stock 2.4.18 driver sourse I can always do a diff to make 
sure)
