Not sure I know enough about kernel settings to feel comfortable that I 
am not going to screw things up worse. Is there a good guide or has 
someone got a precompiled kernel for Ubuntu Edgy with the needed 
"fixes"? I know enough to recompile nvidia and the other manually 
installed packages, just not the kernel. I would really hate to end up 
with a non-bootable system. :(

TIA,
Bill
