Not sure specifically if there's a CD error in 2.2.14, though I *did* run into a smbfs conflict. However, kernels in the range 2.2.13(?) - 2.2.16 have known root-level exploits. 2.2.17 is strongly recommended. The other alternative may be to fall back to 2.0.38 or thereabouts, which may lack some functionality but is a solid and dependable kernel AFAIK (if anyone knows differently, speak now). -- Karsten M.
