Chris, The Mantel version that I'm using is 2.4.18-27 and NOT 2.4.28-27. Anthony
Christopher, Should I be running SuSE 2.4.16-x rather that Mantel's 2.4.28-27?

Is it really nessesary to use SuSE custom compiled kernels from their website with SuSE distro instead of using plain kernel from kernel.org?
No, of course not.
What are advantages of using Mantel SuSE kernels over the standard ones? Isn't it true that if you need any additional kernel modules or features you can just patch the kernel or compile them in?
The SuSE kernels have patches from our developers that haven't been added to the Linus tree yet but there's nothing magic in them.
The SuSE kernels are built with pretty much every module possible so there shouldn't be any to rebuild for that.
