To be able to use a 2.6 kernel, the system needs specific minimum versions of userspace tools (such as modprobe, insmod, ...) as well as a GNU libc version that is capable of interfacing with that kernel.
You have to very carefully check the requirements of kernel 2.6
I supposed he will take care about those dependencies :-) Brendan what SUSE version are you running?
Well, since Brendan is asking for pointers/docs to recompile a kernel from source, I assume he's not an expert on that topic.
Brendan, the easiest path is to upgrade the whole distribution. As Carl-Daniel wrote, I'd also suggest to upgrade to 10.0.
Upgrading an old SUSE version to 10.0 sure isn't an easy task, but IMHO easier then trying to fix your current system by installing core and kernel stuff manually (from source), etc...
A nightmare that should really be left for experts (and experts tell you to better upgrade your distribution ;))
PS: Pascal I think you have a problem with the time: "Message was signed on 1970-01-01 01:59 with unknown key 0x58857177."
huh?
