“There are several reasons for you to upgrade your kernel, you
need a new device driver for your hardware, or you need to upgrade
due to a bug in the kernel. Usually new kernels run faster than the
old ones and are more stable and reliable.“You can find out what the latest kernel source is, however, at

2.4.19. You can download this kernel from www.kernel.org or by
clicking here. If you just want to install a patch, you can get
that here…”
