Supermount is not a part of the Linus released kernel. Mandrake is the only distro that adds the supermount patch to the kernel. And I agree that somewhere around -14mdk or -15mdk, supermount received some changes that resulted in more drives having problems. A good case in point is the fact that you have -9mdk and it's working well for you. Blue skies...
