Yep, it's a good road to take vs the rather large upgrade to 2.4, it's not 
the kernel that's the problem, it's the revised ancilliary packages that take 
time to integrate.

The one problem with the usb enhanced 2.2. kernels is that they don't 
hotplug. Many / most of the newer usb creatures coming on the market each 
week simply wont' work or be detected at 2.2.anything because the author 
needs to write (in effect) two separate drivers for the same animal and just 
won't trouble himself to do so.
