It's not necessary... if you had 2.2.15 I'd say upgrade to 2.2.16 or
2.2.17 due to a security problem, but 2.2.14 should be ok.

Unstable from what I know, but I haven't paid too much attention. I'd
rather stick to the stable kernels than 2.4.. =) But you can try it...

No! Don't ever upgrade a kernel like that. Follow the instructions at
www.linux-mandrake.com/en/fupdates.php3 (search for the kernel update
for 7.1). Follow those instructions and you will have no problems.
