No idea about your problem, but I can report that a stock 2.6.6 kernel
works fine with FC2 and the NVidia 5336 drivers using (mostly) the FC2
kernel configuration.  I turned on NTFS, and turned off REGPARM and
the 4G/4G split feature for my build.  And, of course, I left 4KSTACKS
disabled, as it is by default.  Hardware is a Athlon 1800XP, KT333,
Geforce 5700 Ultra.
