34 <PRE>More worried about the risk of it not coming back up than anything else.
36 So, 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?
38 And 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?
