Yes, Con Kolivas (not 100% sure of his name) does do well. He seems to
have alot of input on the LKML and has quite a bit of patching and dev
on it.

If you are going to actually USE a third party kernel... Wouldn't you
rather use a Debian built 2.6.20 kernel?

There are the steps to get the latest Debian Kernel etc...

        linux-image-2.6.20-1-vserver-k7

I clipped the descriptions, to help keep it readable.

This way, you don't have an outside of Debian, managed kernel.
