This is the big problem for linux users. We want the experimental kernal
because such-and-such a product won't run w/o it -- but chances are,
something is broken in the experimental kernal.
Personally, I find it to be lots of fun to watch things break and fix
them after hours of hair-pulling anxiety and confusion. Then again, that
could just be me :)
