I've got a Compaq Evo N800c on which I am currently running RH9 with a custom patched and compiled 2.4.20-18 kernel. It took me about 2 weeks of reading up on ACPI and tracking down a custom DSDT and patches to get it working. I'd like to try Yarrow on it, but I'm cringing at the prospect of having to figure everything out on a new kernel version. Is anyone running Yarrow on an Evo N800c, or similar machine? Care to share how you configured it? Barring that, would everything work reasonably well if I upgraded to Yarrow but continued to use the old kernel?

Thanks
Mike
