Are we talking about kernels? According kernel.org, 2.4.10 is the latest
stable version, and 2.4.11-pre6 is alpha...2.5.xx is supposed to be the next
round of testing kernels.

Meanwhile, I don't understand why there are so many crashes with any of these
kernels...why isn't 2.4.xx stable? I know about the high load issue, but
that's all I've heard about it. 2.2.19 is very stable....
