34<PRE>More worried about the risk of it not coming back up than anything else.
35
36So, apart from installing a new kernel, what should I do? If I'm not going to get ircservices to work, can anyone recommend a different services application?
37
38And anyway, what is it that ircservices needs in a newer kernel? If complex things like php/openss(h/l) and so on work fine here, why not something as simple as this?
39
40Thanks,
41

84</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; If you think, 2.2.16 is not too old, I think you live behind the moon...

86</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt;
87</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; On ftp.de.kernel.org, the kernel files for 2.2.16 are from June 7th
