Some more anecdotes: I switched to 2.6 now, currently running
2.6.2-rc3 with ALSA CVS and capabilities patch. My laptop even uses
the stock Debian 2.6.0 package. System responsiveness is much improved
in general and even feels faster than my LL and preemptible patched
2.4.22 kernel (I know it isn't but it really does feel so.) On the
audio side I generally don't get any dropouts even under load. 

I was switching between 2.4 and 2.6 a lot the last two weeks, and I
still cannot print in 2.6, but in general I really prefer 2.6 now.

ciao
