Well, actually, Axel just updated the kernel and drivers. The new 
proper line would be:

# apt-get install kernel#2.4.20-19.23.rh9.at 
kernel-source#2.4.20-19.23.rh9.at

Still definitely reboot after updating to that kernel, as `uname -r` 
does indeed grab its output from your running kernel. And you DID make 
sure you used back-ticks, and not single-quotes, right?

Outside of that, you shouldn't have to change a thing. An updated guide 
will be posted shortly...
