Re: Red Hat or Suse

I have no choice but to use stock kernels in my production servers. I have general purpose servers and you never know what or when you need to plug in new hardware or peripherals. It's a pain if you need to recompile the kernel everytime you plug in a new peripheral. The only time I need to compile is when I need a module for a piece of hardware not supported by the stock kernel, even then, I only compile the module but leave the kernel itself untouched.

Now, I just realized this is an Oracle email list. Sure looks like a LUG email list.
