The 2.4.7-10 kernel is the standard one delivered with RH 7.2 and is
pretty old. It crashed on my Compaq notebook and forced me to look at
new kernels; that's how I got to kernel.org and started compiling my own
kernels.

The Compag is running well on 2.4.19 with the latest ACPI patch  from
sourceforge and KACPID lost interrupt patch: see the HSF FAQ:

8) I have an ACPI-based machine and the driver is crashing or not
loading

        It might be necessary to recompile a generic kernel from
        ftp.kernel.org with the latest ACPI (and perhaps also
        KACPID kernel lost interrupt) patches from
                http://sf.net/projects/acpi/

Although the HSF driver on your ASUS-based machine isn't crashing, maybe
this is your problem. Compiling your own kernel isn't as daunting as it
might seem - and you can always choose to boot on your old kernel =if=
things go wrong. A number of contributors to this list have found that
this has been their salvation :-)

Best,

Tony
