The kernel works for me.  But I'm a home user so I don't have much to worry
about.  The availability of new features is more important to me (for the most
part) than a possible lack of stability.

When rebuilding kernels, always blow away /lib/modules/<version> and then
rebuild the modules with make modules; make modules_install.  This will avoid
the unrecognized modules.o errors.
