Before I get the sources and start figuring out how to get it configured,

I have Asus NForce2 motherboard which comes with 3c920 (Tornado) chipset

and uses 3c905 module for drivers...)

I have couple of years old Riva TNT2 Ultra and I have only used XFree86
drivers which comes within Mandrake, ie. I have not bothered to download
NVidia's drivers. That's because I do not have any fancy game which would
need them.

It would be really great it if Mandrake could do that. Current behaviour
which freezes whole desktop is definitely not an preferred option.

urpmi seems still upgrading kernel to the 2.4.13 versions eventhough there
seems to exist 2.4.16 series of kernels in the cooker-mirrors.
Is this, intentional?
If I want to try 2.4.16 series of kernels, can I just download it and
install it safely by 'hand with RPM?
Mika
Does 2.4.16 kernel-rpm's in Cooker contain support for JFS-drives? I ask
this because I would like to try
kernels with new VM in my home-machine where I have Mandrake 8.1 installed
to JFS-partitions.
