	I am running 2.4.21 without any problems... Can't say the system
'feels' any better, but then that seems kinda personal. I've been
meaning to revert to an earlier kernel; I keep changing so many things
pennecontemporaneously that I can't ever sort out what makes the biggest
improvement. In any event, with the new kernel, new ALSA (and different
sound card) and some fine tuning (removing unused processes, etc), my
system is performing better (three 320x240 recordings RTJpeg: idle CPU 
stays consistently above 0% on a AMD 2200+)
