   I am just a user, I know nothing. I am curious about the latest kernels.
   I run 2.4.26, the current Slackware kernel. What is the current 2.6.n kernel
status? It is written very differently, and no previous driver will work, how
is the development of all of the drivers we need coming along?
   Are the drivers still ' stored as gziped object files?
   Can they still be installed and removed from the running kernel etc?
I don't want tt experiment, I want to change over when everything is ready for
me. I create more than enough grief for my self without experimenting.
