   Teardrop was already discussed widely on BugTraq. Linux kernel 2.0.31
has it already fixed. I would advise getting 2.0.32 kernel though, since
it has the "F0" bug fixed too. The patch that was available is *not* what
was changed in the code afterwards by the Linux kernel development team,
i.e. "patch"!="change made in 2.0.31 kernel"
