Umm, sorry, you might want to look real close into the the sources of 2.4.14 
and 2.4.15 - all Alan's changes from Linus tree are in the 2.4.15 tree (look 
at the sound drivers for example - You could once make a driver with the 
kernel to play directly at 44Khz - now you can only 48Khz and downmix to 
44Khz with a user space app)
