Yes, please, good idea. I will ask some broadband enabled friend to
download the SPRM of the latest kernel for Red Hat 9, estract that
config file from there (**), and we can all compare the two. It may be
kind of comparing apples with oranges (ie 2.2 vs 2.4), but it can't
hurt, we'll surely learn something anyway.

(**) if somebody has it, just place it online somewhere and post the
URL, please
