 problem with it is that it constantly hangs for reasons unknown. anyone know if
 the problem is with the kernel? I've tried compiling a 2.4.20 kernel but it keeps
 hanging during the compile and when I finally got it done, the laptop reboots when
 loading the new kernel. I'm sorely tempted to hurl the laptop out the nearest window
 and buy a new one.

Compile the kernel and modules on your desktop pc and copy them to your
laptop with ssh/scp. I did this for my slow old laptop with 16MB ram;)
