not to mention the fact that 2.3.0 is just a 2.2.(i dont remember what
number) kernel with a new revision number, I'd like to mention something
which should have been common knowledge, but from the amount of people
suggesting to use a 2.3 kernel, apearently it isn't so :
2.3.x kernel is a development kernel - it has an 'odd' number for it's
minor revision number, like 2.1.x - it's not supposed to be stable and
should only be used by people who like to debug lot's of strange mishaps
and want to help in kernel development. all other users should stick with
'even' numbered minor revisions, like 2.2.x and 2.0.x .
