the latest redhat kernel - redhat is hanging us to dry ...

The latest kernel released (kernel-2.4.18-17.7.x.rpm) include one of the
latest versions of the tux patch, which has all the features i have
contributed (ifmodified, expires), but it doesn't include the latest patch
against 99% cpu bug (i believe it includes the 18-A1 patch, and we are now
at 18-A3)! well, i will just keep on using my own kernel.

i will try to setup and environment where you can compile the tux module
without recompiling the kernel - a very good example at the
linuxvirtualserver.org site - they provide a kernel patch, but they also
provide a tarball that builds the nessesary modules against the present
kernel - very useful and works great.
