http://kernel.org:

The latest stable version of the Linux kernel is:  	2.6.8.1

The other 2.6.9-rc kernels appears to all break NVIDIA kernel modules
(at least for me) as they appear to not have a __VMALLOC_RESERVED (afair)
that the NVIDIA kernel module complains about. 

Compiled 2.6.8 it works but then my NFS breaks horribly, thus I'm custom compiled a 2.6.8.1 that works
