Is this anything like RedHat's customized kernels? My experience with those was that the headers were broken in a subtle but deep way, so that third-party kernel module source, for example, would not compile. If these Debian patches are so great, why aren't they in the official kernel source? There's too many Unixes as it is, why have more than one Linux? -chris
