I totally agree with you. 2.6.17 is the most recent kernel I can install or compile on FC4. I would have to upgrade to FC6 or Fedora7 on all the 128 nodes of my two Beowulf clusters to get a more recent kernel. That's a lot of work so I'll stick with 2.6.17 until I have a good reason to upgrade.

Thanks a lot for your help.
