Eli, Aaron, et al.:

   Please, let's not get wrapped around the axle on this, for the details are
not of interest to my needs.

   What I would greatly appreciate from those of you with much more kernel
knowledge than I have is just _which_ 2.6.x kernel I should install for a
stable, production, I-don't-want-to-pay-attention-to-it machine.

   I'll try to get to doing something with the notebook this weekend, but I
must get my boat finished so I can put it up for sale. That's the highest
priority for non-work time. The Sony will keep working with the 2.4.24
kernel.

Thanks,

Rich
