I have found that 99p9 is much more stable than 99p11
at present. This seems to be the case especially when
it comes to networking. My home machine runs 99p11, and
doesnt give me that much grief, but then it isnt networked
The box I am posting this from dies really badly when i
boot with a p11 kernel, so i am holding off from updating
at present (the net is already _very busy_ and people would
not be happy if i load it even more)
