I have to agree. SuSE is the only distribution I see out there
providing us with a quality kernel for sun boxes. They have provided
2.4.14 with 7.3. If a user wants a newer kernel, he/she will have to go
on their own until SuSE provides a supported upgrade. Linux is too much
on the bleeding edge for a comapny to jump on every (daily?) kernel
update. Unless there's some drastic mission critical need for a newer
kernel than 2.4.14, I would highly recommend sticking with the provided
kernel and it's source. I've had no trouble re-compiling a monolithic
kernel with the provided sources. Also, the 2.4.x series defaults to
ultrasparc cpus and the 2.2.x series for the sun4c and 4m machines.
Thanks SuSE for the excellent support.
Scott
