Out of shere laziness, I haven't upgraded to Slackware 10.2 yet but my
10.1 has been fine and what things I've compiled have all gone with
success including 2.6 kernels.  So if you're gonna downgrade, I'd just
go back to 10.1; don't bother going even further back.  I usually like
to be as current as possible so I'll take the chance and see how things
go.  I know, I found with my last upgrade, I had to pay particular
attention to run time libraries to avoid numerous shared library missing
type errors but I figure I could eliminate most of that by install the
entire L series and be done with it.  I don't fully understand thr rhyme
or reason behind some of the library package make-ups but anyhow...
