I guess I need to rethink my plan for kernels. I thought 2.4.20 with preemptive patch would be a good move, but now I'm not so sure. I guess it's back to the research boards for me. My main complaint with Linux so far is the performance on high-end PC's, like my KX7-333 Board and Athlon XP thor

the swsusp included is beta 16, which is broken per the swsusp and acpi-sppt lists -- not like beta 15 worked, but apparently beta 16 is even more broken :-) This could be related to swsusp, but hotplug has quit working, rendering my memory-stick slot broken (this is USB, so proceed with caution).

Jack, I was getting ready to try 2.4.20, either vanilla (with preempt patch, and a modified Mandrake .conf), or cooker 2.4.20-2. Could you advise me in on as to why you aren't happy with 2.4.20? I was under the impression it fixed some USB problems, of which I am having. Thanks, Robert Crawford

the default 9.0 kernel comes with a very old version of ACPI -- you should either go from vanilla (which broke USB in my case) or download a cooker kernel with newer ACPI. I've had ok luck with 2.4.19-19, currently on 2.4.20-2 and not happy with it. On Tue, 2002-12-17 at 08:19, Sascha Noyes wrote:
