Hey, I'm currently porting Adeos/x86 over 2.6.19-rcX, so why on earth
should I be the only frustrated guy on this list?!... :o} Anyway, the
good news is that, when this thing works, I'm likely going to get +500

following the vanilla kernel changes these days, when you happen to
contribute some out-of-tree code? Mm, ok, I knew I shouldn't ask...
