Well, lots of messages to the lists and newsgroups suggested that PAO
is a "good thing", so I did install it right away. I guess that the
two things that I really need from PAO are PC card support, in
particular for the Accton ethernet card, and APM support. Neither of
those things seem to be available in the GENERIC kernel, which I just
built and tried. Of course, if there's some way to turn those on, then
I'd be willing to forego PAO, I guess...
Thanks.
