Yeah, unfortunately, I'm constrained to use that kernel version by the 
hardware that I've got.  A third party has configured the kernel to 
support their hardware and they do not support later kernel versions on 
it, alas.  There have been attempts to run more recent kernels on their 
hardware, but there are reports of things (like USB ports) no longer 
working.

Anyone have experience with this old kernel?
