FWIW, I've been using ns 4.78 since August 20 on the listed kernels with
no noticable change.  All kernels have Andre's IDE patch.

If you have a specific test script I can give it a run.

2.2.19pre17, 2.2.20pre{6,9,10}
XFree86-3.3.6-29 (SVGA driver)
ide.2.2.19.05042001.patch
communicator-v478-us.x86-unknown-linux2.2.tgz

System is Athlon 850 (CONFIG_M686=y) on an Abit KA7.
