It would be nice to have a more stable kernel and newer userland on top.

I'm still trying to get everything working again on this laptop after the 
Fedora 7 kernel went from 2.6.22 to 2.6.23.  The biggest surprise?  The 
wireless card and the wired ethernet changed devices; previously the wireless 
was eth0 and the wired was eth1, but now the wired is eth0.  Haven't checked 
to see what the wireless comes up as... let's see, dmesg says nothing about 
it, means it's not recognized anymore (bcm4328 is the device...).

And the built-in sound, which was working for output at least, no longer works 
at all.

I haven't tried the SD card since 2.6.23 blew in.

At least X didn't break.
