          | Wondering if it was safe yet...some folks on nvnews had problems getting the latest nvidia drivers installed onto 2.6.17 before 2.6.17 was released... |

          Hmmm..."Linux distributions will detect how many processors, or conceivably processor cores, are running on the system at boot time"

Anyone w/ a single processor system want to be a guinea pig and install 2.6.17-slh64-smp-1?  Sounds like there's no need for the -up- uniprocessor version any more, so it'll be less work for slh and kano   |

          FYI, I'm on 2.6.17-slh64-smp-1 w/ the latest 8762 nVidia drivers w/ no problems.
 
 
Well...actually the only problem is ALSA seems stuck at 1.0.11rc4, but I'll create a new post for it... |

Well, unfortunately not. The -up kernels are still needed for several hardware combinations - a lot of laptops with buggy Bios among them. 
 
And by the way, the mentioned 2.6.17-slh64-smp-1 is the only and most recent 64bit kernel we offer, needed for Kanotix64 and runs flawlessly on 64bit single core machines.

          I can confirm that the smp 32 bit kernel dies on both my notebooks (all perhaps have buggy bioses?).
 
Please don't give up support of the up kernels.
