Thanks for your comments.  I read a couple forum posts that laptop users 
preferred mm-sources over the development-sources.  As soon as OpenOffice.org 
1..1 finish compiling, I will compile the 2.6 kernel.  

Since I want to keep my 2.4.22 kernels, what should I do to make sure I do not 
lose the config files for these kernels?  When I upgraded from 2.4 to 2.4.22, 
I remember removing the old configs in /usr/src/linux.  Will I do the same.  
I read in the a couple people mentioning to cd into /usr/src/linux-beta and 
compiling from there.
