Hell.
I've never had a default kernel of any kind boot my lillian
since slackware 3.0. She's a Toshiba T4900, a pretty standard
model, but I've never managed to get anything from debian that
would get her juices flowing.
Personally I roll my own kernel. I don't do anything special,
I just don't include the little additions that are included in
the defaults. I've never had any problems with my own kernels
on that machine.
I understand that the Tecras have/had a few peculiarites in the
non-standard direction, so your mileage may vary.

going for shipment tomorrow... and about 10 mins ago I
was given a list of last minute changes. The build takes
five or six hours on our enterprise 450.
I love my job." Carlyle.
