Compiling a new kernel isn't hard and IMHO it's a much better idea that
using someone else precompiled kernel. It's not even risky, provided you
make your bootloader (probbly lilo) still default to your old (known good)
kernel. it should take you 15 mins to configure it (use "make menuconfig" -
you'll need ncurses installed). make bzImage, make modules, make
modules_install, then copy the ./arch/i386/boot/bzImage to your boot slice,
and you're done.
