Of that, I'm certain - I can post URLs to #UML, or maybe someone who is
subscribed could post to their mailing list. I know other people had tried
to use skas with grsec.

You haven't released the patch officially yet, have you?

No; UML works very well, but the hardware I typically run UML on doesn't
work well with 2.4 (the cmd649 IDE add-on controller doesn't really work, at
least didn't with 2.4.25-pre3). Having installed 2.6.x, I see no reason to
go back to 2.4.x.
