Just some small bits for now (other than 40kb of bits from 2.4),
more stuff pending will probably wait until after I get back from
KS/OLS/UKUUG conferences.

As usual,..

This is working great!
No more trouble with X (writing this mail with KMail in 2.5.24-dj2)

using these options:
CONFIG_PREEMPT=y
CONFIG_AGP=y
CONFIG_AGP_SIS=y
CONFIG_DRM=y
CONFIG_DRM_MGA=y

turned preemt on a long time ago and never noticed anymore since I use make
oldconfig, so if there was any trouble with preempt in 23-dj it is fixed now

also the '__iounmap: bad address d0802030' message is gone thanks to Andi.

so it looks solid (at least for the 10 min it is running (seti@home) now)
