First note: there is (not yet, at least) no 2.2.x where x is greater than
13. There are pre-patches available, but no actual 2.2.14 (or higher).
Can't speak about potato w/SMP specifically, but I do have a dual Pentium
server running an updated slink and 2.2.13; I have had no stability
problems since I tracked down a driver problem.

You won't run into any problems; I haven't had any trouble (outside of
drivers for a particular ethernet card) for several months now.
