Hello, Having used the SuSE - hacked 2.2.17-SMP for over six weeks now, and being incredibly satisfied with it, I pose the following (seemingly) stupid question. Can you use the SuSE - hacked kernel on other distros without problems? My first guess is that - yes - a kernel is a kernel. But, I know that Red Hat, Debian, e.g. all have their own kernel hacks. Are these somehow optimized for their base install? Are the kernel hacks only different by means of opinions and expertise of staff programers with the respective companies? Thanks, Ron __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
