No, I'm not. The point is, point me to any other distro that's sitting
on kernel 2.2 as the default kernel at this time? I know the kernels
are still maintained, but there are things in 2.4/2.6 that you will not
find in 2.2. There are changes that can not be backported.
Oh, you really shouldn't respond to two messages in one response like
that, it can screw up threading.
