Now I've been using the latest 3698.  The older 2756 and 3366 you use
don't work on 64 bit machines, while the newest one does. (Stephen is
apparently using truck, which is 37 something or 38 something.)

Actually, Fedora 9 now has a livna-testing rpm that works.

Interesting enough, the Ubuntu Intrepid, also a 2.6.26 kernel has
trouble and required a different patch.

Buffy: Mom, the only way you get a new slayer is if the old 
slayer dies. 
Joyce: Then that means you... When did you die? You never told me
you died. 
Buffy: It was just for a few minutes.
