I have'n had a better one since the 2.2.19 :) It procuded unresolved symbols in several configs and oopsed in the ipv6 support ... - I did not experienced this with 2.4.16 or 2.4.18 ;-) - I did not saw 2.2 kernels for years ;-) The only problems I had with 2.4 were the NFS+reiserfs and NFS+smy-links problems and the obvious broken 2.4.9 (or was it .10?) and 2.4.15 ... k33p h4ck1n6 Ren? -- Ren?
