Hmmm, I guess my posting was a bit ambigious in this regard. I started out with 2.4.18, upgraded to 2.4.19, later 2.4.21. As the fcdsl-crashes (triggered by disconnection) didn't cease, I googled and found other reports of the same bug on kernels 2.4.18 and higher, so I decided to give it a try and downgrade to 2.4.17. From there, I went right up to 2.4.24. At that time I learned of a patch to the module which allowed to run it without the problems previously encountered. However, there still remained the system freezes from the second bug (buffer.c/ transaction.c), so I decided to upgrade to 2.4.25 and, ultimately, 2.4.26.
