What's the benefits of kernel 2.4.34.1 announced in dsl 4.0? Better hardware support for newest hardware? Puppy linux have kernel 2.6.21.5,but requires at least a pentium3 processor to running fast,because kernel 2.6 requires more cpu cycles.-More hw support -updated drivers (less bugs..)
2.6 does not require that much, it just might be that puppy needs that much power for the GUI..
I've used 2.6.20.14 and 2.6.16.27 on a 586 with very nice speeds
