Cisco VPN client 4.6 on SuSE 9,3

Hi I googled around and serch the mail list. Someone claimed that they got it working. I couldn't get it to compile and when I went to the realease notes at http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/vpn/client/4_6/relnt/46clnt.... I found that the client does not support SMP kernels. My current kernel is 2.6.11.4-21.9-smp. I wonder: 1) Someone has been succesful with the SMP kernel? 2) Maybe I can switch to a different kernel and if so which one do I install? The default kernel???. I know that in Fedora you can select kernels when the machine is booting. Is there such a mechanism for SuSE 9.3? Can someone point me in the right direction? thanks -H
