        they are? I tried looking for framebuffer stuff in the 2.2.14 stock
kernel config, and didn't find it (at least not where it was in the 2.3.99
config). 
        I know there was framebuffer support *available* for 2.2; but I
thought it must be a separate patch or something. (went looking for it once
in the past, and didn't find it).

        smbfs i'm probably wrong on, tho.

also, forgot about the khttpd option now integrated into 2.3.99! 
the question of course then is; how much web traffic do you actually need;
before khttpd *really* becomes helpful? as I understand it; it's only good
for helping static pages along... which are minimal load anyway. I suppose
it leaves more headroom for scripts and stuff to run, tho.
        my web server at work here gets 2-3 hits a day, and serves nothing
but static pages. so it's not like I have much of a clue about high-load
service. :)
