H T, The functionality should be the same. There might be cases where something or other does not work, but please let us know after you go through the steps of installing and following the example provided at: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-nineth/msg01316.html The other solution is to wait until there is reported functionality under newer kernels. How long the wait is another thing. The system should be stable enough to get important work done. YMMV though with this.
