Possibly not, it has USB and firewire but still has serial/parallel but no ps2 keyboard/mouse. The yenta driver works very fine out of the 2.4.21-pre7 plain kernel, with my prism2 wifi card. ACPI has been broken for ages in the 2.4 series, both plain and redhat-patched. After you compile and install the kernel, you'll have to delete a bunch of compatibility symlinks in the modules directory, but other than that it works right out of the compile.
