In this case, kernel 2.4 is a workaround, not a solution, and the solution is to get kernel 2.6 as small as kernel 2.4. Can you send me the .config's you are using for 2.4 and 2.6 (preferably for kernel.org kernels)? > Andreas Steinmetz cu Adrian -- Gentoo kernels are 42 times more popular than SUSE kernels among KLive users (a service by SUSE contractor Andrea Arcangeli that gathers data about kernels from many users worldwide).
