Hi Kirk
I tried patching a 2.6.10 kernel a week or so back with latest CVS, and 
had the same problem with mark/cut. Since I have some sight, I saw a lot 
of kernel symbol garbage, and a kernel panic. I have since reverted back 
to CVS as of the end of last year, which I know works.

What has to be done to keep the 2.4 support maintained?
