Oops? Thought it was the other way round? At least I had some trouble with
Suse 7.3 and its 2.4.10 Kernel (until i decided to ignore SuSE's warnings and
made my own 2.4.16 Kernel :-) , whereas i recently read a statement from
RedHat that they'll "stay with 2.4.9 until the new kernels pass their test
suite". Alas, building a homegrown Kernel is always good fun....
