I've been running the 2.6 kernel since 2.6.2.  I have 2.6.5 (vanilla)
running flawlessly on my gentoo system and have no intentions of ever
going back.

The only issues I've found (minor) have been gentoo requiring some
alsa-* ebuilds, not understanding (yet) that these are included in 2.6.

Also, nvidia's nforce chipset drivers haven't been ported to 2.6 yet (as
of a few weeks ago).  However, several of the chips have compatible
drivers included in the kernel (e.g., forcedeth for the nforce on-board
ethernet).

I'll have to download 2.6.6 tonight. :)
