  12. If all things worked the way one expected, the best linux kernel to
  13. choose would be the latest kernel in the "stable" (even) version numbers.
  14. I believe that this is 1.0.9 currently.  Unfortunately, due to many people
  15. wanting the features of the experimental versions and no freezing of
  16. the development code to 1.2.0 ("stable") and 1.3.0 (experimental),
  17. the "stable" kernel is becoming rather dated.   The problem with
  18. just choosing an experimental kernel is that little (and often no)
  19. documentation exists to tell you what changed between kernel versions.
