Hi, Again as home user, had some problems with 2.4 on both boxes ( scsi one and my other SMP 2x800 Mhz.) My problems were related to nvidia. That's why I very quickly upgraded to 2.4.2 ( and SuSE put quite fast the 2.4.2 kernel on there ftp ). Don't forget to upgrade modutils (2.4.2) : ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse_update/7.1/kernel A few days ago, there were some nice threads also on System.map, kernels headers on this list. Try to read them, they are very instructif. I think that if you need IPtables, 2.4.2 is better than 2.4 ( again, more info was on the list ). 2.4.2 has been running since +/- 1 month on both PC, whithout any problems, but they are not heavy duty machines. ( I've an internal ftp, nfs, samba and web server ). Filip. Le Samedi 7 Avril 2001 20:40, vous avez écrit :
Hey,
I know this is an odd, stupid sounding question, but I can't decide if I should use 2.4 or 2.2.18. I'm setting up two servers are rather important, they've got to work properly without trouble.
There's many good reasons to use 2.4, what worries me is that I haven't used 2.4 yet anywhere, so I'm not personally assured of how stable it is.
Has anyone had trouble with it, or is it as rock-solid as 2.2.18?
TIA
