I'm using the vanilla gobo kernel, NewVersioned to 2.6.21.5, minus a
couple patches (gobohide and vesafb).  Since some of the mactel patches
are getting into mainline linux and I'm not in a hurry to have
everything fancy work, I didn't want to bother figuring out which
mactel-linux patches to apply (and it feels "right" to get the vanilla
kernel working).
